Abstract
Experimental results, based on double-energy measurements using solid-state detectors, are given for the thermal-neutron-induced fission of $^{233}\mathrm{U}$. Detailed mass and energy distributions and mass-versus-energy correlations have been obtained from experiments containing 1.1\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}${10}^{6}$ events. The average total kinetic energy is found to be 172.0\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}1.8 MeV. Results are compared with other kinetic experiments and with radiochemical measurements.
