Abstract

Cumulative yields of short-lived/barium isotopes139, 141, 142Ba have been determined in the spontaneous fission of252Cf, using fast radiochemical separation and gamma-ray spectrometry.142Ba yield is reported for the first time. The measured cumulative yields are converted to chain yields, assuming normal charge distribution systematics for comparision with the literature data.
