Use of oxide targets in 2-keV average neutron capture measurements
PDF Version Also Available for Download.
Description
Large samples (approx. = 10 to 100 grams) are usually required for 2-keV filtered-beam measurements and such samples invariably come in the oxide form. Monte Carlo calculations show that the resulting neutron spectrum is degraded by approx. = 0.2 keV in a /sup 145/Nd/sub 2/O/sub 3/ sample. Otherwise, oxide samples are acceptable for such measurements.
