Abstract

Measurement of independent isomeric yield ratios (IR) of 128,130,132Sb, 131,133Te, 132.134,136I, 135Xe and 138Cs have been carried out for the first time in the epi-cadmium neutron induced fission of 239Pu by using an off-line gamma-ray spectrometric technique. The average neutron energy (<En>) of the epi-cadmium reactor neutron spectrum is 1.9 MeV. From the IR values, root mean square fragment angular momenta (JRMS) were deduced by using spin dependent statistical model analysis. Effect of nuclear structure on JRMS values was examined. The present data in the epi-cadmium neutron induced fission of 239Pu were compared with the similar data in the thermal neutron induced fission of 239Pu to examine the role of excitation energy on JRMS values.
