Gamma Ray Spectra from Thermal Neutron Capture on Gadolinium-155 and Natural Gadolinium

Tomoyuki Tanaka, Kaito Hagiwara, Enrico Gazzola +18

Natural gadolinium is widely used for its excellent thermal neutron capture cross section, because of its two major isotopes: ${}^{155}$Gd and ${}^{157}$Gd. We measured the $\gamma$…
