Description
Total cross sections for neutron scattering with energies between 10 and 600 MeV and from nine nuclei spanning the mass range from 6Li to 238U have been analyzed using a simple function of three parameters. The values of those parameters with which neutron total cross-section data are replicated vary smoothly with energy and target mass and may themselves be represented by functions of energy (and of mass). With the function for 208Pb, addition of the Ramsauer-like effects with a simple model then provides an excellent fit to the total cross section from 5 to 600 MeV
