Because of recent advances in experimental techniques, which improved the accuracies of thermal capture and scattering cross sections by an order of magnitude, a more stringent approach in the evaluation of the thermal constants is developed. In the present approach, the following aspects are introduced: (1) a consistency between thermal cross sections, coherent and incoherent scattering lengths, and neutron resonance parameters is achieved; (2) a consistency between the isotopic and element cross sections is sought; in addition, for each isotope, the requirement that the partial cross sections add up to the total is fulfilled; (3) where possible, charged particle data particularly derived from (d, p) reactions on light and medium weight isotopes are used in locating the positions and strengths of bound levels. Such a procedure is useful in the evaluation of the shape of the cross sections in the thermal region; and (4) the Lane-Lynn theory of direct capture is called upon to calculate thermal cross sections and check for consistencies for certain isotopes. Extensive examples to illustrate these procedures are presented.

Neutron Cross Sections, Volume 2: Neutron Cross Section Curves presents data for total reaction cross sections and related fission parameters as a function of incident-neutron energy. This book covers energy range from 0.01 eV to 200 MeV to exclude crystalline and magnetic effects for slow neutrons and relativistic effects for high energy neutrons. The data in this volume are grouped into sections corresponding to the element of the target nucleus in the neutron-induced reaction. These sections are ordered in increasing atomic number. Within a section, graphical data are presented for the natural element followed by the isotopes of that element in order of increasing atomic mass. A list of the reaction types is provided at the end of each section. This book also provides graphical section, wherein each graphical page is annotated on the outer edge with a symbol for an element or isotope followed by the list of the cross section data for that element or isotope. The data plotted in the graphical section are tagged by a mnemonic consisting of year, laboratory, and author's last name. This tag can be used to find the corresponding reference on the bibliographic pages.
