Progress in fission product nuclear data

This is the fifth issue of a report series on Fission Product Nuclear Data (FPND) which is published by the Nuclear Data Section (NDS) of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The purpose of this series is to inform scientists working on FPND, or using such data, about all activities in this field which are planned, ongoing, or have recently been completed. The types of activities being included in this report are measurements, compilations and evaluations of: Fission product yields (neutron induced and spontaneous fission); neutron reaction cross sections of fission products; data related to the radioactive decay of fission products; delayed neutron data of fission products; and lumped fission product data (decay heat, absorption etc.). The fourth issue of this series has been published in July 1978 as INDC(NDS)-95/G+P. The present issue includes contributions which were received by NDS between 1 August 1978 and 15 May 1979. The next issue of this report series is envisaged to be published in June 1980
