XXXIII. Neutron attenuation measurements in heavy and light Water at energies between109and169mev

Abstract

The difference between the total cross section of deuterium and hydrogen has been obtained at effective energies of 109, 117, 132, 149 and 169 mev from attenuation measurements on light and heavy water. Using published values of the hydrogen cross section, the oxygen total cross section was also obtained at these energies.
