Description
Abstract:A review is made of the current status of ²³⁵U fission cross section data from thermal to 20 MeV neutron energies. The accuracy achieved is compared with the 1 percent accuracy required of a reaction-cross-section standard throughout this range. The energy ranges from thermal to 10 keV, 10 keV to 0.8 MeV and 0.8 to 20 MeV are considered separately because of the different experimental techniques required in each. The goal of normalizing all fission cross sections to the thermal value and the current degree of success is discussed.
