Abstract The fractional cumulative yields of135I,138Xe and140Ba in the α particle (30 MeV) induced fission of232Th have been determined following the growth and decay of135gXe,138gCs and140La, respectively, employing high resolution gamma ray spectroscopy. The fractional cumulative yield values are 0.766±0.02, 0.813±0.03 and 0.991±0.004, respectively. The analysis of the data indicates a broader width of charge distribution (σ) compared to the normally observed σ=0.56±0.06 for thermal neutron fission of235U.
