Abstract

In the present work, delayed neutrons are used for the investigation of the chance structure of the fission cross section. For this, time parameters of delayed neutron precursors emitted from the fission of 238U by neutrons with the energies from 14 to 18 MeV have been measured. The T(d,n) reaction was used as a neutron source. The experimental data have been processed to account the effect of degradation of detector counting rate in high intensity neutron flux and the effect of concomitant neutron source D(d,n) caused by implanted deuterium ions in neutron target. The data obtained based on the time parameters of delayed neutron precursors have been used in the analysis of the chance structure of the fission cross section of the 238U.
