A measurement of the 235U prompt fission neu-tron spectrum (PFNS) by the recoil proton method was performed at the Institute of Nuclear Physics and Chem-istry, China. Details of the method, which include the calculation and validation of the response matrix, are pre-sented. The PFNS for 235U in the energy range 1–12 MeV, induced by thermal neutrons, was obtained. The measured spectrum in the low-energy region was in good agreement with previous work and the ENDF/B-VII library, except for minor differences. In the high-energy region, however, the relative height of the measured spectrum was greater, and an analysis of the experiment indicated uncertainties of 13% at 10 MeV and 24% at 12 MeV. Experimental results showed that the recoil proton method could be used to measure prompt fission neutron spectra. Some directions for future work are included. 4. M. Kosˇt’ál, E. Losa, P.
