Neutron transmissions through 1.5-, 5-, 10-, 30-, 100-, 425-, and 1425-mil samples of depleted /sup 238/U were measured from 0.52 eV to 4.0 keV using the ORELA pulsed electron linac neutron source and time-of-flight technique with a 1-mm /sup 6/Li-glass detector with a flight path of 40 m. The measurements are tabulated and compared with transmissions calculated from the ENDF/B-IV total cross section. In addition, the 1425-mil transmission from 50 to 300 eV is compared with transmissions calculated by using multilevel formalisms, and some neutron widths are extracted with area analysis and compared with those from previous measurements. 14 figures, 10 tables.
