Evaluation of ²³⁵U and ²³⁸U Fast Fission Product Yields from Godiva-IV Burst Irradiation via Gamma Detection

Creator:

Tamashiro, Aaron S.

Abstract:

During the past few decades, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has made significant investments to improve nuclear data libraries, as the quality of this data impacts nearly all analyses of nuclear systems. Nuclear fission product yields are one component of these libraries, and are important for the analysis of...

AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Aaron S. Tamashiro for the degree
Measurement of 239Pu, 237Np, and 238U Fission Product γ Rays

Creator:

Tamashiro, Aaron S.

Abstract:

Fission product yields (FPYs) are used for a wide range of applications including nuclear fission theory, nuclear reactor design, reactor antineutrino anomaly, stellar nucleosynthesis, and nuclear forensics. These applications rely on FPYs that were last evaluated in 1993, which included measurements from all over the world up until 1993. In...
