Description
The 237Np neutron-induced fission cross section was measured relative to the 235U(n, f) cross section in the energy range from 0.2 MeV to 500 MeV using the GNEIS neutron time-of-flight spectrometer and the pulsed neutron source based on the 1 GeV proton synchrocyclotron of the NRC KI - PNPI (Gatchina). The experimental setup consisted of two position-sensitive MWPC counters, which also allowed simultaneous measurement of the angular distributions of the fission fragments [1]. A brief description of the experimental set-up, data processing and the preliminary results obtained are presented.
