Description

The fission process induced by gamma quantas up to 25 MeV energy on 238U was analyzed. Experimental observables as cross sections, fragments mass distribution yields of some nuclides of interest and average prompt neutrons multiplicity characterizing 238U photofission were theoretically evaluated by using TALYS-1.9 software. Also results for the theoretical evaluations of isomer ratios using Talys possibilities supplied by own computer codes as well as experimental isomer ratios obtained at MT - 25 Microtron are presented. This study represents a research proposal for photofission investigations and isotopes production at the new neutron source IREN, from FLNP - JINR Dubna.
