High resolution measurement of the 238U to 235U fission cross section ratio between 2 Mev and 25 MeV
Description
There are persistent discrepancies among recent measurements of the 238U fission cross section in the region from threshold to about 30 MeV. Some of those discrepancies may be due to errors in the energy calibration of the measurements. This paper describes a measurement of the 238U/235U fission cross section ratio. Particular attention was paid to the energy calibration of the data. The results of the measurement are provisionally normalized to an evaluated value at 2.5 MeV, but further experiments are in progress to obtain an independent absolute normalization
