Abstract
A least squares analysis of fission neutron standard fields has been p erformed using the latest measurements and dosimetry cross sections fo r activation foils, fission chambers, and helium accumulation monitors . Discrepant nuclear data are identified and adjusted spectra for the U-235 thermal fission field is presented. Comments are made on the con sistency of the nuclear data for the Cf-252 spontaneous fission neutro n environment.
