Reconstruction of Spontaneous Fission Neutron Multiplicity Distribution Spectra by the Statistical Regularization Method

Abstract

In this paper we propose a technique for reconstructing the multiplicity distribution of spontaneous fission neutrons using the Tikhonov regularization method. The results obtained for 252No, 244Fm, 246Fm, and 248Cm are compared with previously reconstructed distributions. The multiplicity distributions of spontaneous fission neutrons of 250No, 256Rf, and 254Rf are reconstructed for the first time. The mean number of neutrons per decay and the dispersion of the distribution are obtained for each spectrum.
