Evaluation of delayed neutron yields and time spectra from photofission of 238U induced by Bremsstrahlung photons below 9 MeV [PDF]
Few data exist regarding the yields and time spectra of delayed neutrons from the photofission reaction on actinides. In this paper, we report the characteristics of both six-group and eight-group delayed neutron time models for the photofission of 238U ...
