Radiative neutron capture cross section from ²³⁶U

NUCLEAR REACTIONS ²³⁶U(n, γ), E=10 eV-800 keV; measured neutron time-of-flight spectrum, Eγ, Iγ, (n-resonance)γ-coin using the Detector for Advanced Neutron Capture Experiments (DANCE) γ-ray calorimeter at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center; deduced multistep cascade spectra and multiplicity distribution of strong resonances, average multiplicity of resonances, capture σ(E), energies, Γ_γ, and Γ_n of neutron resonances for E(n)=29.8-998.1 eV. R-matrix analysis using code SAMMY. Comparison with earlier experimental data, and with ENDF/B-VII.1 and JEFF-3.2 nuclear data libraries.
