Abstract
The total neutron cross sections of Zircaloy-2, zirconium-90, and carbon have been measured in the energy range 0.4 to 2.4 MeV, using the Bettis 3-MeV Van de Graaff pulsed-beam time-of-flight system in conjunction with a NE213 pulse-shape discrimination transmission detector for gamma-ray discrimination. Results obtained far Zircaloy-2 are significantly lower than prior evaluated data near 1 MeV. In addition, the zirconium-90 results average 6 to 7% below the Zircaloy-2 results.
