BETA SPECTRA. III. SPECTRA OF U235 FISSION PRODUCTS AT SELECTED TIMES AFTER FISSION,

Abstract

Composite beta spectra for mixed fission products of U235 have been computed as the weighted sum of the theoretical beta spectra of the individual emitters. Reactor operating times used were: 0, 30, 60, 120, 240, 480, and 960 seconds, and 1 year. Sixteen decay times between 1000 and 10 to the 8th power seconds were used. Results are graphically presented and are considered accurate to within 15% for decay times less than 10000 seconds, and to within 5 % for times greater than 10000 seconds. (Author)
