Abstract

The energy characteristics and the emission probabilities of the tritons and the particles emitted in the thermal-neutron-induced ternary fission of U233, U235, Pu239, and Pu241 have been studied at a neutron guide of a high flux reactor, using surface barrier E-E telescope detectors. Within the experimental uncertainties, E and Et appear to be constant. On the other hand, the widths of these distributions and the and t emission probabilities seem to be correlated with Z2/A and with (i.e., the constant for radioactive decay) of the fissioning systems. These results are interpreted and discussed.
