Summary
We present results on the yield of sputtering of Pu atoms from a Pu foil, bombarded by fission fragments from a ²⁵²Cf source in transmission geometry. We have found the number of Pu atoms/incoming fission fragments ejected to be 63 ± 1. In addition, we show measurements of the sputtering yield as a function of distance from the central axis, which can be understood as an angular distribution of the yield. The results are quite surprising in light of the fact that the Pu foil is several times the thickness of the range of fission fragment particles in Pu. This indicates that models like the binary collision model are not sufficient to explain this behavior.
