摘要
An experiment devoted to studying neutron-neutron angular correlations in the slow-neutroninduced fission of U-233, U-235 and Pu-239 nuclei was performed. The experimentally determined angular dependence of the number of neutron-neutron coincidences was compared with the results of a Monte Carlo simulation for various values of the neutron-detection threshold in the range between 490 and 2080 keV. It was found that the experimental angular distributions in question can be described well under the assumption that 2% to 5% of all prompt fission neutrons are emitted isotropically in the laboratory frame. Probably, such neutrons can be interpreted as so-called scission neutrons directly associated with the nuclear-rupture instant. Energy distributions of this component were also obtained from the present analysis.
