Title: Yields of Fission-Recoil Bromine by Delayed-Neutron Studies
Authors: Silbert, Marvin
Advisor: Tomlinson, R. H.
Department: Chemistry
Keywords: Fission-Recoil;Bromine;Delayed-Neutron;uranium
Publication Date: May-1965
Abstract: <p> Fission-product bromine was isolated from a uranium target by the hot-atom reaction of the fission recoils with methane to form organic bromides. The organically-bound bromine was shown to be formed preferentially by primary (independently-formed) bromine with little contribution from secondary bromine. </p> <p> The delayed-neutron activity of the short-lived bromine isotopes was analyzed to obtain the relative yields of delayed neutrons from Br8?, Br88 and Br89 produced as primary fission products. The relative delayed-neutron yields are summarized below. (see abstract in text) </p>
