Description/Abstract:
AN ATTEMPT HAS BEEN MADE TO CORRELATED THE DIFFERENT MEASUREMENTS PERFORMED AT HANFORD TO DETERMINE CROSS SECTIONS AND DIFFUSION LENGTHS OF GRAPHITE. THERE IS POOR CORRELATION. IF THE MEASURMENTS ARE VALID, THE CARBON CROSS SECTION (WITH 2200 M/SEC NUETRONS) CANNOT BE LESS THAN 3.8 MILLIBARNS.
