Description

Under the Program of Measurements of Prompt Fission Neutron Spectra of Minor Actinides for Transmutation Purposes the integral neutron spectrum in spontaneous fission of 244Cm has been measured by the time-of-flight method in the energy range of 0.1-15 MeV relative to the standard neutron spectrum in 252Cf spontaneous fission. Essential attention was paid to revealing of possible systematic errors. It is shown, that the 244Cm spectrum shape may be well described by using Mannhart evaluation with appropriate parameter of Maxwell temperature TM = 1.37 MeV. (author)
