Research output › peer-review

Abstract

The Westcott g_f-factor, which is important for the physics of thermal reactors, was calculated using our recent accurate neutron induced fission cross-section data for ²⁴¹Pu. It yielded g_f(20·44°C) = 1·046 ± 0·006. The temperature dependence of g_f was also calculated in the temperature range 0°-1000°C and compared with previous results.
