High resolution neutron total cross section measurements with the (A) ORNL linac and (B) the Columbia University's Nevis Synchrocyclotron and (C) with B.N.L. HFBR. Progress report, April 1, 1975--March 31, 1976
The research involved the measurement, analysis and interpretation of high resolution neutron total and partial cross sections in the neutron energy range of few eV to few hundred keV in the following nuclei: Bi, Ta, Natural Copper, Natural Zinc, separated isotopes of copper, iron and zinc, e.g., $sup 54$Fe, $sup 56$Fe, $sup 58$Fe, $sup 63$Cu, $sup 65$Cu, $sup 64$Zn, $sup 66$Zn, $sup 67$Zn, $sup 68$Zn, $sup 70$Zn and Mn, Co, V. Some of these measurements were performed with the Columbia University's neutron velocity selector and the measurements on separated isotopes of iron, copper and zinc were performed with the Oak Ridge electron linear accelerator. By using area and shape analysis of resonances, the data were analyzed to extract the values of resonance parameters such as resonance energies (E/sub o/), neutron widths ($lambda$/sub n/), capture widths ($lambda$/sub $gamma$/) etc. The systematics of these results were investigated in detail. The results of these investigations have been submitted for publication in professional journals. (auth)
