Hi,

Possibly, which is why I tried to word my response cautiously rather than
emphatically. ;)
IOW there may be some target isotopes where this is the case, and I'm not sure
whether or not 232Th would be one of them.
I have a question about fission that someone here, perhaps Robin, might be
able to address.
Suppose you have 90-TH-232(P,F)51-SB-128. EXFOR does not appear to make it
straightforward to determine the products apart from antimony. What I'm
wondering is how much I can infer from the shorthand

I don't think you can fission 232Th with a slow proton. My reasoning is as
follows.
1) A neutron is 782 keV heavier than a proton (and hence lends more energy to
the reaction).
2) A neutron slow neutron won't do

That must be from the output of your program that I can't run because I
have an old Mac. :) Which of any of the reactions would
