Neodymium neutron cross section measurements.

Neutron capture and transmission measurements were performed by the time-of-flight technique at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute LINAC using metallic neodymium samples. The capture measurements were made at the 25-m-long flight station with a 16-segment NaI(Tl) multiplicity detector, and the transmission measurements were performed at 15 and 25 m flight stations with a 6Li glass scintillati...

Integral cross section measurement of the 12C(n,p)12B reaction

The integral cross section of the 12C(n, p)12B reaction was measured at the neutron time of flight facility n_TOF at CERN, from the reaction threshold at 13.6 MeV up to 10 GeV, by means of the combined activation and a time-offlight technique. The integral result is expressed as the number of 12B nuclei produced per single pulse of the neutron beam. A simple integral expression is given for cal...

MEASUREMENT OF THE REACTION CROSS SECTION OF d(Be,B)n

Cross section of the reaction 9Be(γ, n) near threshold

Six kinds of radioisotopes were used to measure cross sections of the "Be(?, n) reaction near its threshold. The results obtained were0.88 5 0.16, 1.33 2 0.24, 1.10 2 0.20, 0.73 5 0.13, 0.47 5 0.09, and 0.18 2 0.04 mb at 1674.7, 1705.2, 1724.9, 1778.9, 1836.0, and 2167.6 keV, respectively. The cross sections measured show a sharp peak near the threshold, and its width is narrower than that obse...
