Comparison of many experimental methods and investigation of their systematic errors are indicated for the measurement of the ratio of the epicadmium /sup 238/U neutron capture rate to the subcadmium /sup 238/U capture rate in a slightly /sup 235/U-enriched (1.143 percent) fuel rod. An explanation of the discrepancy between theory and experiment is given.
