CORRELATIONS IN TERNARY FISSION

2000

An experiment investigating correlations in ternary fission of233U induced by cold polarized neutrons was performed at the high flux reactor of the ILL in Grenoble (France). With the experimental setup, Left—Right and time reversal symmetry violating and conserving correlations between neutron spin\(\hat \sigma \), neutron momentum\(\hat p_n \), momenta of fission fragments\(\hat p_f \) and ternary particles\(\hat p_t \) could be investigated.
