Description
In order to measure the angular distribution of the fission fragments (FFAD) of neutron-induced reactions, a fission detection setup based on parallel-plate avalanche counters (PPACs) has been developed and successfully used at the CERN-n-TOF facility. In this work, we present the preliminary results on the analysis of new 235U(n,f) and 238U(n,f) data in the extended energy range up to 200 MeV compared to the existing experimental data. It appears that the results for both 235U and 238U are in good agreement with previous measurements up to 20 MeV. From 20 MeV to 200 MeV, the results for 235U are higher than those of the two datasets recently published (around 8% at 100 MeV); and for 238U the present data are within the uncertainties of previous ones
