Abstract
The effective cross section for the reaction Cs135 (n, γ) Cs136 with reactor neutrons is 10.4 ± 0.5 barns. The measured reaction rate under cadmium yields a value of 61.7 ± 2.3 barns for the resonance integral of Cs135. The thermal cross section is 8.7 ± 0.5 barns as obtained by combining the reaction rates for uncovered and cadmium-covered samples.Keywords
