Student Experiments in Spontaneous Fission.
Becchetti, F. D.; Ying, J. S.
American Journal of Physics, v49 n12 p1162-71 Dec 1981
Advanced undergraduate experiments utilizing a commercially available, thin spontaneous fission source are described, including studies of the energy and mass distribution of the fission fragments and their energy and angular correlation. The experiments provide a useful introduction to fission, nuclear mass equations, heavy-ion physics, and related topics. (Author/JN)
