EFFECTIVE U$sup 238$ RESONANCE CAPTURE INTEGRALS IN RODS AND LATTICES

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4828934
Presented at Panel on Light Water Lattices'' Vienna, Austria, May 1962. Measurements were made of U/sup 238/ resonance neutron capture in isolated uranium metal and UO/sub 2/ rods. Monte Carlo calculations of resonance integrals were made to investigate the range of validity of the equivalence relations under idealized conditions. Resonance integrals were also inferred from measurements of the resonance escape probability for a number of different lattices. These results were then correlated with the isolated rod measurements by using two of the suggested equivalence relations. (M.C.G.)
