The experiments were carried out using neutrons from the PNPI WWR-M research reactor in Gatchina. For the 239Pu target the fragment — neutron correlation measurement was also performed at the first resonance. In this case the neutron energy of the strong resonance at 0.296 eV was selected by a Sm filter which was arranged in the neutron flux from the reactor. The description of the experimental set-up and some preliminary results of the average number and kinetic energies of prompt neutrons as a function fragment mass are presented in this article. }, title = {Prompt Neutron Emission in the Neutron-Induced Fission of 239Pu and 235U}, url = {}, volume = {}, number = {}, journal = {}, pages = {1003-1006}, issn = {}, publisher = {American Institute of Physics}, doi = {} }
