Adjusted cross sections in neutron spectrum unfolding
Conference

OSTI ID:5349724
The benefits and limitations of using adjusted (or benchmarked) cross sections in fast neutron spectrum unfolding are investigated. In recent years, the use of generalized least-squares methods (data adjustment) has added a new level of rigor to spectrum unfolding. In this context, it is worthwhile to reexamine the practice of adjusting or benchmarking dosimetry cross sections in a well-known neutron field in order to obtain a better result when unfolding an unknown spectrum.
