Statistical analysis of a correlation method for thermal neutron absorption cross-section determination

  • 1. Institute of Nuclear Physics, Cracow (Poland)

Description

The correlation method for determining the thermal neutron macroscopic mass absorption cross-section for rock samples is analysed in this paper. A procedure for estimating the standard deviation of the absorption cross-section by a computer simulation is presented. The simulation is always based on the real experimental data obtained in the measurements. (author)
