Abstract

The primary yields of

{Br}^{82}

I^{130}

{La}^{140}

\Pr^{142}

, and

I^{135}

have been accurately determined for the mediumenergy (20-40 Mev) helium-ion-induced fission of

U^{233}

U^{235}

, and

U^{238}

. These accurate primary yield data have been correlated with the constant-charge-ratio rule for nuclides away from the neutron shells and give a smooth, but different, distribution curve for nuclides of 83 neutrons.
