Abstract

The measured angular distributions of fission fragments of 240Pu nuclei have been presented and theoretically analyzed. Measurements at energies above 10 MeV have been performed for the first time. A model description of the energy dependence of the angular anisotropy of fission fragments in the entire studied range of neutron energies has been proposed.
