Description

The data for the work has been obtained from the experiment performed at Variable
Energy Cyclotron Centre, Kolkata using the INGA facility. A self-supporting 232Th target
of thickness ~25 mg/cm2 was bombarded with 30 MeV α particles. A total of six
compton suppressed clover Ge detectors and one LEPS detector were used in the
array.
By analyzing the two-fold coincidence data, a complete relative isotopic yield distribution
of the fission fragments has been extracted. Detail experimental results followed by the
necessary theoretical interpretation would be presented.
A.D. would like to acknowledge the financial support from BRNS, BARC, Mumbai
(Sanction no. 37(3)/14/17/2016-BRNS).
