- Summary
-
The scattering of neutrons with energies of less than or approximately 1.5 MeV from tantalum, rhenium, and platinum was studied experimentally. Elastic and inelastic neutron-scattering angular distributions were determined at incident neutron-energy intervals of less than or approximately 20 keV throughout th range 0.3 to 1.5 MeV. Time-of-flight measurements were made concurrently at eight or more scattering angles between 25 and 155 degrees with sufficient scattered neutron-energy resolution to separate the elastic scattered component from most inelastic scattered neutron groups. Differential inelastic scattering cross sections were observed corresponding to the excitation of various states. The experimental results were compared with calculations based upon the optical model and the Hauser-Feshbach formula inclusive of corrections for resonance-width fluctuations. The experimentally observed level structure is discussed in the context of single-particle and rotational states of deformed nuclei.
