Abstract: (Elsevier)
Sub-barrier resonances in the 239 Pu(d, pf) reaction have been investigated with a resolution of 3 keV. Many class II resonance groups with an average spacing of 11 keV have been observed in the region of the 5.0 MeV transmission resonance. The coincident fission fragment angular correlations indicate a spin 2 + for all lines resolved. The data are analyzed on the basis of a simple model of intermediate structure which also explains the observed broadening of the class II groups.
