Abstract

The measured polarization of neutrons that have been elastically scattered from 16O in the energy region from 1–4 MeV has been analyzed using a general, multi-level R-matrix reaction theory. A self-consistent set of resonance parameters and estimates of the effects of distant levels were found. These parameters were then used to predict the neutron differential and total cross sections from 0–4 MeV: the predictions are in good agreement with experimental results. In addition to the R-matrix analysis, a phase-shift analysis of the polarization measurements was also carried out.
