The angular distribution of fission fragments has been measured for proton-induced fission of 197 Au and 209 Bi nuclei at several energies between 25 and 30 MeV using surface-barrier detectors. The measured anisotropies are found to be in agreement with the predictions of the standard saddle-point statistical model. The measured anisotropies for neither of the nuclei show any anomalous behavior as a function of both energy and entrance channel mass asymmetry. The fission cross sections of 197 Au and 209 Bi nuclei were also measured and compared with that of the previous works.

A γ-spectroscopy campaign named “ν-Ball” was perfomed at the ALTO facility. A large fraction of the beam time was dedicated to the fast neutron induced fission of two fissioning systems: 232Th and 238U. During the data analysis, it was noticed that the high activity of the natTh was heavily contaminating any coincidence matrices (or cubes) built. This caused the identification of weakly produced fission fragments identification to be almost impossible. It was decided to explore the opportunity opened by new analysis methods based on neural networks algorithms. In this paper, the methods to build an adequate neural network and the results obtained for fission event reconstruction are presented.

Abstract Neutron-rich nuclei were studied after fast neutron-induced fission of 238U and 232Th at the ALTO facility in Orsay, France. The neutrons were produced with the LICORNE directional neutron source using a pulsed 7Li beam provided by the Tandem accelerator. The actinide targets were surrounded by the ν-Ball array to measure the de-excitation of fission fragments. The ν-Ball array is a hybrid spectrometer which consists of HPGe detectors (equipped with BGO shielding) and LaBr3(Ce) scintillation detectors allowing for high-resolution γ-ray spectroscopy and lifetime measurements in the ns/sub-ns range. This contribution presents preliminary results on 134Te and 137I populated in the 238U(n,f) reaction.

The theory of the angular distribution of alpha particles and of fission fragments from nuclei aligned at low temperatures is presented. Very explicit results are obtained in the high temperature approximation. These are directly dependent upon the branching which takes place to the various allowed partial waves. This branching is influenced by the nuclear shape, but it is shown that for this problem the effect of penetrating a spheroidal barrier is not critical. An application is made to the experimental work so far available and the result is reasonably satisfactory.
