Spectrum averaged cross section measurements of lutetium using standard 252Cf neutron source

Martin Schulc, Michal Kostal, Tomas Czakoj +4

The spectrum averaged cross section (SACS) in standard neutron field is a preferable tool for cross section validation. There are very few measurements involving lutetium neutron c…
