THERMAL NEUTRON INELASTIC SCATTERING EFFECTS IN A SINGLE CRYSTAL NEUTRON SPECTROMETER

Journal Article · · Nuclear Sci. and Eng.
OSTI ID:4219154
The thermal neutron spectrum emerging from the Apsara'' reactor was measured with a single-crystal spectrometer. The curve of neutron counting vs. Bragg angle showed fluctuations which were much higher than the statistical errors. Similar fluctuations have been reported by other investigators. The course of these fluctuations had not been understood so far. It is shown that these fluctuations are due to inelastic scattering of thermal neutrons by the crystal. The experimental work is described. The results of calculations are graphically shown. (A.L.)
