Abstract
An investigation has been made of the temary fission of 235U in nuclear
emulsions and solid state track detectors sensitive to particles of A > 4 and
A ≥ 16, respectively. The uranium target was homogeneously distributed
throughout the emulsion, or vacuum evaporated on the two foils of the solid
state detector (polycarbonate). On the basis of calculated temary events and
cases of scattering from the temary fission a comparison is made of the
results obtained by means of the two detectors. The yield of ternary ftssion
relative to binary fission is determined to be (8.0 ± 0.4) 10^ -5 in the emulsion,
and (7.4 ± 0.2) 10^ -5 in the polycarbonate detector.
