    Abstract

    Measurements of the ratio Γn/Γ by resonant scattering experiments with a neutron crystal spectrometer have been performed in order to determine the spin J of the resonances. The following results have been obtained: 147Sm, 3.4 eV: J = 3; 147Sm, 18.3 eV: J = 4; 149Sm, 0.0976 eV: J = 4; 149Sm, 0.87 eV: J = 4, 157Gd, 17.1 eV: J = 2; 181Ta, 24.1 eV: J = 3; 185Re, 2.156 eV: J = 3; 191Ir, 0.654 eV: J = 2; 191Ir, 5.36 eV: J = 2; 193Ir, 1.303 eV: J = 2; and probably J = 2 for two resonances at 9.07 eV of 191Ir and 193Ir.
