Abstract

An experiment measuring ternary particle yields in Cf-249(n(th),f) was carried out at the high flux reactor of the Institut Laue-Langevin using the Lohengrin recoil mass separator. Parameters of energy distributions were determined for 27 ternary particles up to Mg-30 and their yields were calculated. The yields of 17 further ternary particles were estimated on the basis of the systematics developed. The heaviest particles observed in the experiment are Si-37 and S-37; their possible origin is discussed.
