Study of gamma rays from neutron inelastic scattering

Cover title"February 1970.""Prepared for United States Department of the Interior Bureau of Mines Morgantown Research Center Morgantown, West Virginia."Includes bibliographical references (page 59)The energy and intensity of the inelastic gamma rays of twenty low atomic number elements: Li, C, N, 0, Mg, Al, Na, Si, S, Cl, K, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Pb, are measured with a 30 cc Ge(Li) detector using an unmoderated 5 curie Pu-Be neutron source. The value of the production cross section for the Pu-Be spectrum is calculated. The results show they are mostly less than one barn.Contract H018089
