Abstract
Neutron radiative capture cross sections near 30 and 65 keV have been measured for a large number of elements by means of a large liquid scintillator and a pulsed neutron source. The results show definitive even vs odd effects as well as systematic variations due primarily to effects of nuclear shells. Calculations of the scintillator efficiency for various capture -ray cascade modes are in good agreement with experimental results.
