Utilizing (p, d) and (p, t) reactions to obtain (n, f) cross sections in uranium nuclei via the surrogate-ratio method

NUCLEAR REACTIONS ^236,238U(p, d), (p, t), E=28 MeV; measured E(d), I(d), E(t), I(t), fission spectra, (particle)(fission)-, (particle)γ-coin, fission fragment anisotropy ratios using STARS detector array at LBNL cyclotron facility; deduced σ[²³⁶U(n, F)]/σ[²³⁴U(n, F)], σ[²³⁵U(n, F)]/σ[²³³U(n, F)], σ[²³⁴U(n, F)]/σ[²³³U(n, F)], σ[²³⁶U(n, F)]/σ[²³⁵U(n, F)] reaction cross section ratios for E(n)=0-7 MeV. Surrogate-ratio method. Comparison with ENDF/B-VII evaluation.
