THE EMISSION OF K-X-RAYS IN SLOW NEUTRON FISSION OF 233U, 235U, AND 239pu*
Present techniques admit the possibility of studying the character of fission fragments with spectroscopic identification of pairs of fragments. The simultaneous measurement of the masses and atomic numbers of fission fragments has been demonstrated in studies of the fission of 252Cf (1). The atomic number is determined by detection of a characteristic x-ray, most often a K-x-ray, emitted by on...
متن کاملUncertainty Quantification for Applications of 239Pu Fission Cross Sections Using a Monte Carlo Technique
We present an approach to uncertainty quantification for nuclear applications, which combines the covariance evaluation of differential cross-sections data and the error propagation from matching a criticality experiment using a neutron-transport calculation. We have studied the reduction in uncertainty of Pu fission cross sections by using a one-dimensional neutron-transport calculation with t...
متن کاملPhotoneutron cross sections for unstable neutron-rich oxygen isotopes.
The dipole response of stable and unstable neutron-rich oxygen nuclei of masses A = 17 to A = 22 has been investigated experimentally utilizing electromagnetic excitation in heavy-ion collisions at beam energies about 600 MeV/nucleon. A kinematically complete measurement of the neutron decay channel in inelastic scattering of the secondary beam projectiles from a Pb target was performed. Differ...

متن کاملMeasurements of absolute cross sections for K-shell ionization of Fe and Mn by electron impact
K-shell ionization cross sections of iron and manganese have been measured for incident electrons with energies varying in the interval from 6.5 to 40 keV, in 1 keV steps. Cross sections were obtained by measuring characteristic x-rays emitted from thin films of the elements studied deposited on carbon self-supporting backing films. Relative cross sections were obtained with uncertainties∼3%. T...
