Status of the quest for /sup 252/Cf. nu. -bar. Interim report
The quest for final resolution of the /sup 252/Cf ..nu..-bar discrepancy continues on several fronts. Two new measurements are nearing completion, utilizing a large liquid scintillator at ORNL and a manganese bath at INEL. Both theoretical and experimental investigations are underway to establish the magnitude of a possible foil thickness effect in ..nu..-bar ratio measurements. The sulfur thermal absorption cross section has emerged as a possible major source of uncertainty in manganese bath measurements. 51 references, 8 figures, 4 tables.
