The neutron-induced fission cross sections were simultaneously evaluated for the JENDL-5 library for 233,235 U and 239,241 Pu from 10 keV to 200 MeV and for 238 U and 240 Pu from 100 keV to 200 MeV. Evaluation was performed by least-squares fitting of Schmittroth's roof function to the logarithms of the experimental cross sections and cross section ratios in the EXFOR library. A simultaneous evaluation code SOK was used with its extension to data in arbitrary unit. The outputs of the code were adopted as the evaluated cross sections without any further corrections. The newly obtained evaluated cross sections were compared with the evaluated cross sections in the JENDL-4.0 library and the IAEA Neutron Data Standards 2017. The evaluated cross sections were also validated against the californium-252 spontaneous fission neutron spectrum averaged cross sections, ΣΣ (coupled thermal/fast uranium and boron carbide spherical assembly) neutron spectrum averaged cross sections, and small-sized LANL fast system criticalities. The changes in the obtained evaluated cross sections from those in the JENDL-4.0 library are within 4% ( 241 Pu), 3% ( 233 U, 240 Pu), or 2% ( 235 U, 239 Pu). The newly evaluated 235 U, 238 U and 239 Pu cross sections agree with the IAEA Neutron Data Standards 2017 within 2% with some exceptions.(This is a preprint of N. Otuka and O. Iwamoto, J. Nucl. Sci. Technol., to be published online as an open access article.)
