Journal ArticleDOI
Intermediate structure in the neutron-induced fission cross section of 236U.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured neutron-induced fission at the Los Alamos Neutron Scattering Center with a white neutron source using a fast parallel plate ionization chamber at a flight path of \ensuremath{\sim}56 m.
Journal Article
Toward a New Evaluation of the Neutron Standards
Allan D. Carlson,V.G. Pronyaev,Roberto Capote,G. M. Hale,F.-J. Hambsch,Toshihiko Kawano,Satoshi Kunieda,R. O. Nelson,Denise Neudecker,Peter Schillebeeckx,S. Simakov,D.L. Smith,X Talou,Anton Wallner,Wei Wang +14 more
TL;DR: Measurements related to neutron cross section standards and certain prompt neutron fission spectra are being evaluated and investigations of reference data that are not as well known as the standards are being considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel Investigation of Iron Cross Sections via Spherical Shell Transmission Measurements and Particle Transport Calculations for Material Embrittlement Studies
Michael T. Wenner,Alireza Haghighat,James M. Adams,Allan D. Carlson,Steven M. Grimes,Thomas N. Massey +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors carried out a multifaceted research project to improve the knowledge of the iron nonelastic scattering cross sections using time-of-flight techniques with neutrons from the 15N(p,n)15O and D(d, n)3He source reactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improvements and extensions of the neutron cross section and fluence standards
Allan D. Carlson,V.G. Pronyaev,Roberto Capote,F.-J. Hambsch,F. Käppeler,C. Lederer,C. Lederer,W. Mannhart,Alberto Mengoni,R. O. Nelson,A. J. M. Plompen,Peter Schillebeeckx,S. Simakov,Patrick Talou,S. Tagesen,H. Vonach,A. Vorobyev,Anton Wallner,Anton Wallner +18 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the IAEA Data Development Project (DDP) has been used to improve the nuclear data standards, extending the energy ranges of some standards, and reference data that are not as well known as the standards but can be very useful in the measurements of certain types of cross sections.
Book ChapterDOI
Measurements of the 235U(n,f) Cross Section in the 3 to 30 MeV Neutron Energy Region
TL;DR: In this article, measurements were made of this standard cross section at the target 4 facility at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) to improve the accuracy of the {sup 235}U(n,f) cross section.
