New Procedure for the Evaluation of Fission Product Yields: Application to the Spontaneous Fission of Cf
A. E. Lovell, T. Kawano, P. Talou
Over the last decade, there has been significant improvement in the understanding and modeling of the decay of fission fragments by both prompt and delayed emission. These model im…
Deblurring fission fragment mass distributions
Pierre Nzabahimana, Amy E. Lovell, Patrick Talou
Measurements of fission fragment mass distributions provide valuable insights into the properties of fissioning systems and the dynamics of the fission process. Pre-neutron emissio…
Updating GEANIE Pu prompt -ray experimental data using modern Hauser-Feshbach fission fragment decay model
Toshihiko Kawano, Amy E. Lovell, Patrick Talou +1
We calculate fission rays for neutron-induced reactions on Pu with the Hauser-Feshbach fission fragment decay model. By applying the calculated fission rays as a…
Time Evolution of Prompt Gamma-Ray Emission in Cf(sf) and U(,f) Reactions
Patrick Talou, Amy E. Lovell, Ionel Stetcu +3
We investigate the time evolution of prompt fission emission due to the presence of ns to ms isomers in the fragments produced in the neutron-induced fission of U…
Uncertainty quantification of optical models in fission fragment de-excitation
Kyle A. Beyer, Amy E. Lovell, Cole D. Pruitt +2
We take the first step towards incorporating compound nuclear observables at astrophysically relevant energies into the experimental evidence used to constrain optical models, by p…
