ON THE EVALUATION OF THE THERMAL NEUTRON SCATTERING LAW

Journal Article Egelstaff, P A ; Schofield, P - Nuclear Sci. and Eng.

The msgnitude of the scattering cross section for slow neutrons by atomic systems (gases, liquids, and polycrystalline solids) is governed by the correlated motions of atoms in the system. A major contributlon to the scattering is determined by the motion of single atoms. The dominant part of this contribution is determined by the velocity autocorrelation function for an atom ln the system. The aim here is to show how the autocorrelation function can be derived from experimental scattering data for small momentum transfers and to give methods of evaluation of the corresponding part of the cross section for all momentummore »« less
THE EGELSTAFF-SCHOFIELD APPORACH TO THERMAL NEUTRON SCATTERING LAW DATA

Technical Report Nelkin, M S

Outlines are given of the ideas of Egelstaff and Schofield concerning the interpretation of thermal-neutron scatteringlaw data, and a program of data analysis and numerical reconstruction of the scattering law. (B.O.G.)

THE TREATMENT OF THERMAL NEUTRON SCATTERING LAW DATA

Technical Report Egelstaff, P A

The relationship between the neutron scattering law and the neutron spectrum in a mcderated system is discussed. In addition the fundamental theory of the scattering law and the methods of combining theory and experiment in order to extrapolate the measurable part of the law to infinity are described. It is concluded that (1) the neutron spectrum is sufficiently insensitive to the scattering law, that errors in the latter are probably reduced 10 times in the calculation of the neutron spectrum, (2) calculations should be undertaken to establish more exactly the magnitude of this effect, and (3) although the theory ismore »« less
Thermal Scattering Law Data: Implementation and Testing Using the Monte Carlo Neutron Transport Codes COG, MCNP and TART

Technical Report Cullen, D E ; Hansen, L F ; Lent, E M ; ...

Recently we implemented the ENDF/B-VI thermal scattering law data in our neutron transport codes COG and TART. Our objective was to convert the existing ENDF/B data into double differential form in the Livermore ENDL format. This will allow us to use the ENDF/B data in any neutron transport code, be it a Monte Carlo, or deterministic code. This was approached as a multi-step project. The first step was to develop methods to directly use the thermal scattering law data in our Monte Carlo codes. The next step was to convert the data to double-differential form. The last step was tomore »« less
