Abstract
The number of prompt neutrons (v) produced in the thermal neutron induced fission of U233, U235, Pu239, andPu24l has been determined with high accuracy using the liquid scintillator technique- Measurements were made relative to an assumed value of v = 3.784 for the spontaneous fission of Cf252. The present results are compared with previous measurements.
