Numerical values of differential cross section for gamma rays produced by neutron interactions with zinc were measured for neutron energies between 0.9 and 6 MeV for sigma = 120 deg. The d sigma /d omega data were obtained using a 35 cm/sup 3/ Ge(Li) detector. The data consist of cross section values for 31 gamma rays having E/sub gamma / between 300 and =780 keV. Neutron energy intervals varied between a minimum of ~50 keV at E/sub n/, ~ 900 keV and a maximum of ~1.5 MeV for E/sub n/ ~ 5.8 MeV. (auth)
