Abstract

We performed the calculations of de-excitation of the primary fission fragments by the Hauser-Feshbach statistical decay followed by the β decay of de-excited fission products. We used the primary fission fragment mass distributions YP(A), total kinetic energy TKE(A), and its width σTKE(A) as input, which were calculated with the Langevin model using macroscopic-microscopic models of the potential energy surface. The prompt neutron multiplicity v̅ and the independent fission product yield (FPY) YI(Z, A, M) and cumulative FPY YC(Z, A, M) are calculated by the Hauser-Feshbach statistical decay and β decay calculations, respectively. The calculated v̅ was overestimated approximately 17% compared to the evaluated data. The decay heats from β and γ were in accordance with the experimental results. The β delayed neutrons yieild was also overestimated.
