Abstract
A facility for prompt γ - ray spectroscopic studies using thermal neutrons from a radial beam line of Canada India Research Utility Services (CIRUS) reactor, Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC), has been developed. To carry out on-line spectroscopy experiments, two clover germanium detectors were used for the measurement of prompt γ rays. For the first time, the prompt γ – γ coincidence technique has been used to study the thermal neutron induced fission fragment spectroscopy (FFS) in 235U(nth, f). Using this facility, experiments have also been carried out for on-line γ - ray spectroscopic studies in 113Cd(nth, γ ) reaction.
