Abstract

Results of the first direct observation of the true ternary fission of 234Pa* nucleus are presented. The yield of the effect depending on the experimental geometry is about 10−5/binary fission. Mass of the lightest fragment in the triplet lies mainly in the range of 20–40 a.m.u. An intimate connection between the effect and known cluster decay as well as conventional binary fission is briefly discussed.
