Fission cross sections of medium-weight and heavy nuclei induced by 1 GeV protons

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik A Atoms and Nuclei

Abstract

Coincidence studies performed in 4π geometry with silicon detectors and parallel plate avalanche counters have been used to measure total fission cross sections of238U,232Th,209Bi,208Pb,197Au,natYb,natHo,natTb,natSm,natTe,natAg andnatNi nuclei induced by 1 GeV protons. The experimental results agree qualitatively with cascade-evaporation calculations.
