Average energy of 237Np and 241Am prompt fission neutron spectra

Abstract: The use of 237 Np in nuclear reactors or electronuclear facilities requires substantially more accurate neutron data for this nucleus, especially, more accurate spectra and average energy of the prompt fission neutrons. Experimental spectra of prompt fission neutrons for the reaction 237 Np(n, ƒ) are available only for a limited set of incident-neutron energies [1-4] (Fig. 1). The theoretical methods used for analyzing and predicting such spectra [5, 6] cannot present a consistent and detailed estimate of the … Show more

“…It is important to include evaluation of fission cross sections and prompt fission neutron spectra, as it was accomplished recently for 237 Np(n, F) and 241 Am(n,F) [37], using the approaches developed for 232 Th and 235,238 U (see [1,7,38] and references therein). These approaches were later supported by the measurement of prompt fission neutron spectra for 237 Np(n,F) by Taieb et al [39].…”
