    GEFY 8.1 | July 2020

    Independent and cumulative fission-fragment yields.

    Multi-chance fission is considered.

    Uncertainties reflect the uncertainties of the model. They are determined from calculations with perturbed model parameters. For this purpose, a series of calculations was performed with different sets of model parameters. Each parameter in these sets was varied randomly with a standard variation corresponding to the uncertainty of the respective parameter deduced from the fit to experimental fission data.

    Isomeric independent yields and cumulative yields were calculated using the decay data of JEFF 3.3. Nuclides with half-lives longer than 1.E6 years were treated as stable. Very neutron-rich fragments, for which no experimental decay information is available, were assumed to decay by beta-minus decay only.

    The calculations have been performed with the GEF code, version version 2020/1.1

    Correction of interpolation scheme applied in January 2021.

    * The tables that were given here before were calculated with only part of the isomers of JEFF-3.3 taken into account by a technial problem. The new tables are still incomplete.
