Abstract
Measurements of the elastic scattering of neutrons from thin platinum foils were made as a function of neutron energy using a time-of-flight technique. Scattering areas were obtained for the 11.9, 19.6, 68, and 96-ev resonances. These were combined with a thick-sample transmission measurement and transmission data from other workers to give values for the parameters of the resonances. Level spins and partial widths were derived by a least squares method.
