Th(n,xγ) reaction cross section for incident neutron energies between 0.3 and 20.0 MeV

Creators

Description

Differential cross sections for the neutron-induced gamma-ray production from thorium were measured for incident neutron energies between 0.3 and 20.0 MeV. The Oak Ridge Electron Linear Accelerator (ORELA) was used to provide the neutrons, and a NaI spectrometer, to detect the gamma rays at 1250. The data presented are the double differential cross section, d2sigma/dΩdE, for gamma-ray energies between 0.3 and 10.6 MeV for coarse intervals in incident neutron energy. The integrated yield of gamma rays of energies greater than 300 keV with higher resolution in the neutron energy is also presented. 23 figures, 21 tables
