Description
The fission cross-section ratio 241Pu : 235U has been measured as a function of neutron energy between 5 keV and 1 MeV by means of a pulsed 3-MeV Van-de-Graaff accelerator. The neutron energy was determined by time-of-flight technique. Fission events were detected in two identical argon-filled gas scintillation chambers in 4π - geometry. The accuracy of the cross-section ratios is estimated to be between 2.5 and 4%. (author)
