New Prompt Fission gamma-ray Data in Response to the OECD/NEA High Priority Request
Journal article, 2014

In this paper we report about new prompt fission gamma-ray measurements, which we have performed with highly efficient gamma-ray detectors based on lanthanide-halide crystals, aiming at very fast timing in conjunction with a good energy resolution. About four decades after the experiments were performed, whose results are still used for current evaluations, we present new spectral prompt fission gamma-ray data from the reactions Cf-252(SF) and U-235(n(th),f). Based on our new findings we recommend to replace the current ENDF/B-VII. 1 evaluation for Cf-252(SF) and U-235(n(th),f) as well as to perform new measurements for U-238(n,f) and Pu-241(n,f).
