Background: There is a long-term interest in running the fission reaction backward, i.e., studying the "inverse fission" of uranium. The recent availability of beams of n-rich fission fragments has stimulated interest in this endeavor.
Purpose: To search for inverse fission in the reactions Sn-¹²⁴,Sn-¹3² + Mo-¹⁰⁰.
Method: In the Sn-¹²⁴...
