Investigation of fission product isomeric ratios and angular momenta of $^{132}$Sn populated in the $^{241}$Pu(n$_{th}$,f) reaction

International audienceDuring an experimental campaign performed at the LOHENGRIN recoil spectrometer of the Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL), a kinetic energy dependence of 132Sn fission product isomeric ratio (IR) has been measured by inducing thermal fission of 241Pu. The IRs are deduced using gamma ray spectrometry in coincidence with the ionisation chamber. To interpret these data, we use the FIFRELIN Monte-Carlo code to simulate the de-excitation of the fission fragments. Combining the IRs with the FIFRELIN calculations, the angular momentum distribution with kinetic energy of the doubly magic nucleus of 132Sn was deduced. This will be compared with the angular momentum distribution obtained for the reaction 235U(nth,f) for 132Sn
