EXPERIMENTAL DETERMINATION OF CORRECTIONS TO THE NEUTRON ACTIVATION OF GOLD FOILS EXPOSED IN WATER
The corrections required to deduce unperturbed neutron fluxes from measurements with foil absorbers were determined experimentally for the case of gold foils exposed in a light-water medium. The results are in good agreement with the theoretical predictions of Dalton and Osborn and of Ritchie and Eldridge. (auth)
