Total Neutron Cross Section of Vanadium from 10 to 1000 Kev

Abstract
The total cross section of vanadium for neutrons of 10 to 1000 kev has been measured with an energy resolution of ±6 kev. For low energy neutrons the values of the cross sections fluctuate rapidly, leveling off to an average of about 3 barns above 500 kev. By using a filtering technique a cross section of 0.0±0.5 barn was measured at 105 kev.
