Description
Half-lives and yields in photonuclear reactions have been measured for shape isomers in U and Pu isotopes by pulsed-beam techniques bombarding 235sup(,)238U and 239sup(,)240sup(,)242Pu targets with bremsstrahlung. Isomeric fission cross sections have been deduced from the measured isomeric to prompt yield ratios within an evaporation model using absolute prompt fission data. The results are compared with data from particle-induced reactions. (orig.)
