243Am neutron fission cross section and resonance parameters

The SVZ-100 lead moderation time neutron spectrometer at the Institute of Nuclear Physics of the Russian Academy of Sciences was used to measure the fission cross section for 243Am in the neutron energy range En = 0.3 eV – 10 keV. The resonance fission integrals and the area and fission width of the resolved resonances were calculated. The properties of the intermediate-structure resonances were evaluated. The results were compared with existing data and recommended evaluations.
