The thermal neutron capture cross sections (GO) and the resonance integrals (Io) of some fission products (FP), such as 137Cs, ^Sr, wTc, 129I and 135Cs, were measured by the activation and y-ray spectroscopic methods. Moreover, the cross section measurements were done for other FP elements, such as I27I, 133Cs arid I34Cs. This paper provides

Learn MoreXenon-135 is a product of U-235 fission and has a very large neutron capture cross-section (about 2.6 x 106 barns). Boronis commonly used as a neutron absorber due to the high neutron cross-section of isotope 10B. Its (n,alpha) reaction cross-section for thermal neutrons is about 3840 barns (for 0.025 eV neutron).
Learn MoreThe cross section is not in general equal to the actual area of the nucleus. For instance the radiative capture cross section for Au197 at the peak of 4.9 eV resonance is 3x10-20 2cm , whereas the geometrical area of its nucleus is just 1.938x10-24 cm2. The reaction cross section is much greater than the physical cross section of the nucleus
