Values of the ratio of the fission cross section divided by the total cross section for 3-Mev neutrons are correlated with the fission parameter Z²A. For compound nuclei excited 8 to 12 Mev above their ground states, the fission width Γf derived from neutron- and gamma-induced fission data increases linearly with Z²A. The quantity ΓfΓₙ is independent of energy for a particular nuclide excited between 8 and 12 Mev.
