Revised systematics for prompt fission gamma-ray spectra (PFGS) characteristics as function of both atomic and mass number of the compound system, derived from recent experiments on thermal-neutron induced and spontaneous fission, is presented and applied to fission induced by fast neutrons. Results from these calculations for U-238(n, f) and U-235(n, f) for incident neutron energies from 0 to 20 MeV are compared to new experimental results, exhibiting nice agreement. Very recent PFGS measurements for Pu-240(sf) and Pu-242(sf) have been evaluated and the determined PFGS characteristics are shown to also fit well with the systematics. From this we conclude that the obtained systematics, although purely empirical, is indeed a useful tool for the prediction of average total gamma-ray energy released in prompt fission, mean energy per photon as well as average photon multiplicity for fissioning systems, which are difficult or even impossible to study experimentally.
