Hauser-Feshbach fission fragment de-excitation with calculated macroscopic-microscopic mass yields

NUCLEAR REACTIONS 235U, 239Pu(n, F), E=thermal; calculated pre-neutron-emission mass yields using various data sources in the three-Gaussian parametrization, average prompt neutron energy, average prompt γ-ray multiplicity, and average γ-ray energy, prompt neutron multiplicity distribution, correlation between average total kinetic energy of the fragments (TKE) and the average prompt neutron multiplicity, and normalized prompt fission neutron and γ spectra (PFNS, PFGS). Hauser-Feshbach statistical model with input mass yields from macroscopic-microscopic models of the potential energy surface for fragment mass yields, and emission of prompt neutrons and γ rays. Comparison with experimental data, and evaluations in ENDF/B-VIII.0.
