Abstract

Energy correlation measurements were performed for the photofission of $^{235}\mathrm{U}$ with 12-, 15-, 20-, 30-, and 70-MeV bremsstrahlung. Overall fragment mass and kinetic energy distributions are deduced. The behavior of the total fragment kinetic energy as a function of the fragment mass and excitation energy of the compound nucleus is studied. The results are interpreted in terms of the scission-point model of Wilkins et al.NUCLEAR REACTIONS, FISSION $^{235}\mathrm{U}$($\ensuremath{\gamma}$,$f$), ${E}_{\ensuremath{\gamma}max}=12, 15, 20, 30, \mathrm{and} 70$ MeV; measured fragment energies ${E}_{1}$, ${E}_{2}$; deduced $\frac{N(\ensuremath{\mu},{E}_{K})}{〈{E}_{\mathrm{exc}}({E}_{e})〉}$.
