Abstract
Short-lived nuclides of iodine produced in the proton-, C-12- and F-19-indu ced fission of U-235, Np-237 and U-238 were separated with a rapid chemical separation system SISAK. Relative yields of the nuclides were determined b y gamma-ray spectrometry to obtain the isomeric yield ratios of I-134m/ I-1 34g and I-136m/I-136g. Angular momenta of the fission fragments, I-134 and I-136, were derived from the measured isomeric yield ratios by the spin-dep endent statistical model. In the light- and heavy-ion fission, variation of the observed angular momenta can be explained by the excitation energies o f the fissioning nuclei and the spherical shell structure with N = 82.
