Abstract

The photofission of

{}^{235}U

and

{}^{238}U

with 25-MeV bremsstrahlung was studied. For both nuclei cumulative yields for about 40 mass chains were measured. For

{}^{235}U

fractional independent chain yields of

{}^{126}{Sb}^{g}

,

{}^{126}{Sb}^{m}

,

{}^{128}{Sn}

,

{}^{128}{Sb (9 h)}

,

{}^{128}{Sb (10 m i n)}

,

{}^{131}{Sb}

,

{}^{131}{Te}^{g}

,

{}^{131}{Te}^{m}

,

{}^{132}I

,

{}^{134}I

,

{}^{135}{Xe}

,

{}^{136}{Cs}

, and

{}^{140}{La}

were determined and for

{}^{238}U

those of

{}^{128}{Sn}

,

{}^{128}{Sb (9 h)}

,

{}^{131}{Sb}

,
