Fission yields determined for fission of ²³⁸U with monoenergetic neutrons have been used to calculate the fission yields expected in ²³⁸U when exposed to a Watt neutron spectrum for ²³⁵U and in the center of the Experimental Breeder Reactor II core. The calculated results are compared with the experimental results for several reactors and with the fast fission yields recommended by two compilers.
