Modification of Albert-Welton point attenuation kernel

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6537339

The Albert-Welton point kernel has been modified to allow the use of the more recent oxygen removal cross section of 0.99 barns/atom. The modification did not fundamentally alter any of the physical assumptions in the derivation, and resulted in an improved fit to the BSF centerline data.
