Abstract
In this chapter we apply the formalism described in the remainder of the book to the calculation of fission fragment properties following the induced fission of 240Pu. Fragment mass distributions are obtained for the \(^{239}\mathrm{Pu}\left (n,f\right )\) from thermal up to 5 MeV in incident neutron energy. Total kinetic and excitation energies as a function of mass number are calculated for the fragments for thermal incident neutrons.
