INTERMEDIATE ENERGY NEUTRON-INDUCED FISSION CROSS-SECTIONS FOR PROSPECTIVE NEUTRON PRODUCTION TARGET IN ADS

Up-to-date status is considered of the experimental database on neutron-induced fission cross-sections of tantalum, tungsten, lead, mercury, gold, and bismuth nuclei in the neutron energy range from the fission threshold to 175 MeV. The perspective of creating a more complete database is discussed, including (n,f) cross-sections for separated isotopes of lead and tungsten.
