Abstract

Abstract : Chain yields and independent yields of the U238 fission products from a thermonuclear explosion were estimated. Since unclassified data for this kind of process are scanty, some features of the mass yield curve were inferred from published data on U238 fission by neutrons ranging from fission-spectrum energies to 14 Mev. Independent yields of the fission products were then calculated by application of the equal charge displacement theory of nuclear charge distribution in fission processes.
