In the field of nuclear waste package characterization, using Photon Activation Analysis (PAA), these yields are needed in order to optimize a technique enabling the identification of actinides (<sup>235</sup>U, <sup>238</sup>U, <sup>239</sup>Pu), based on the detection of delayed gamma-rays. As the lack of data in the field of photofission is strongly penalizing for the tuning of this technique, we designed several measurement campaigns in order to determine the yields of various photofission products. The experiments were based on the detection of delayed gamma-rays and delayed neutrons emitted during the same measurement. The feasibility of this technique was first verified in the context of active neutron interrogation, by comparing experimental results for the thermal fission of <sup>235</sup>U and <sup>239</sup>Pu with reference values provided by several recent databases (ENDFB 6.8, JEFF 3.1). The method was then applied to active photon interrogation, in order to obtain the yields of nuclides formed by the photofission of <sup>235</sup>U and <sup>238</sup>U. This paper presents the experimental results obtained with these measurements.</div> </div> <div class='row'> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv col-xs-4 col-sm-2 fullRecLabelEnglish'>Keywords : </div><div class='valueDiv leftDirection leftAlign col-xs-8 col-sm-10 fullRecValueEnglish'>bremsstrahlung; gamma-ray detection; nuclei with mass number 220 or higher; photofission; <sup>235</sup>U; <sup>238</sup>U; <sup>239</sup>Pu; ENDFB 6.8 database; JEFF 3.1 database; Photon Activation Analysis; bremsstrahlung; cumulative yield; delayed gamma-rays detection; nuclear waste package characterization; photofission; thermal fission; Cooling; Databases; Neutrons; Photonics; Radiation effects; Radioactive decay; Uncertainty; Actinides; cumulative yields; delayed gamma-rays; delayed neutrons; fission; photofission;</div> </div> <div class='row'> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv col-xs-4 col-sm-2 fullRecLabelEnglish'>fLanguage : </div><div class='valueDiv leftDirection leftAlign col-xs-8 col-sm-10 fullRecValueEnglish'>English</div> </div> <div class='row'> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv col-xs-4 col-sm-2 fullRecLabelEnglish'>Journal_Title : </div><div class='valueDiv leftDirection leftAlign col-xs-8 col-sm-10 fullRecValueEnglish'>Nuclear Science, IEEE Transactions on</div> </div> <div class='row'> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv col-xs-4 col-sm-2 fullRecLabelEnglish'>Publisher : </div><div class='valueDiv leftDirection leftAlign col-xs-8 col-sm-10 fullRecValueEnglish'>ieee</div> </div> <div class='row'> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv col-xs-4 col-sm-2 fullRecLabelEnglish'>ISSN : </div><div class='valueDiv leftDirection leftAlign col-xs-8 col-sm-10 fullRecValueEnglish'>0018-9499</div> </div> <div class='row'> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv col-xs-4 col-sm-2 fullRecLabelEnglish'>Type : </div><div class='valueDiv leftDirection leftAlign col-xs-8 col-sm-10 fullRecValueEnglish'>jour</div> </div> <div class='row'> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv col-xs-4 col-sm-2 fullRecLabelEnglish'>DOI : </div><div class='valueDiv leftDirection leftAlign col-xs-8 col-sm-10 fullRecValueEnglish'>10.1109/TNS.2011.2157169</div> </div> <div class='row'> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv col-xs-4 col-sm-2 fullRecLabelEnglish'>Filename : </div><div class='valueDiv leftDirection leftAlign col-xs-8 col-sm-10 fullRecValueEnglish'>5936656</div> </div> <div class='row'> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv col-xs-4 col-sm-2 fullRecLabelEnglish'>Link To Document : </div><div class='valueDiv leftDirection leftAlign fullRecValueEnglish col-xs-8 col-sm-10'><a href='https://search.ricest.ac.ir/dl/search/defaultta.aspx?DTC=49&DC=1262912' target='_blank'>https://search.ricest.ac.ir/dl/search/defaultta.aspx?DTC=49&DC=1262912</a></div> </div> </div> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv leftAlign backLinkEnglish'><a href='javascript:history.back()'><img src='../CSS/Back.png' class='backImage' alt=
