Research output › peer-review

Abstract

The Westcott g_f-factor, which is important for the interpretation of measurements with Maxwellian neutron spectra and reactor spectra, was calculated using our recent accurate neutron induced fission cross-section measurements. The value we obtained is g_f = 1.053 ± 0.003. We further calculated the temperature dependence of g_f from 0°C to 1000°C.
