Abstract

This research was concerned with the measurement of neutron cross sections of importance to the Fast Breeder Reactor. The capture and total cross sections of fission products (/sup 101/ /sup 102/ /sup 104/Ru, /sup 143/ /sup 145/Nd, /sup 149/Sm, /sup 95/ /sup 97/Mo, Cs, Pr, Pd, /sup 107/Pd, /sup 99/Tc) and tag gases (Kr, /sup 78/ /sup 80/Kr) were measured up to 100 keV. Filtered neutron beams were used to measure the capture cross section of /sup 238/U (with an Fe filter) and the total cross section of Na (with a Na filter). A radioactive neutron capture detector was developed. A list of publications is included.
