Abstract
The effect of heating graphite on the diffusion length and effective scattering cross section of thermal neutrons was investigated. It was established that in the 15–350 °C range the diffusion length changes mainly in accordance with the law 1/v for the absorption cross section. The slight deviation from this law is due to the increase of 0.5 mb/deg in the scattering cross section with an increase in temperature.
