Revisiting the role of the $(n,\gamma f)$ process in the low-energy fission of ${}^{235}$U and ${}^{239}$Pu

J. Eric Lynn, Patrick Talou, Olivier Bouland

The $(n,\gamma f)$ process is reviewed in light of modern nuclear reaction calculations in both slow and fast neutron-induced fission reactions on ${}^{235}$U and ${}^{239}$Pu. Observed fluc…
