The first is themicroscopic reaction cross-section. This parameter is a quantitative measure ofthe probability ofa neutron undergoing some specified reaction with anindividualnucleus ofanyoneofthe materials presentinthereactor. Themicroscopic cross-sectionis important indeciding whatmaterials mayormay not be suitable for use in the reactor.

Total microscopic neutron cross section is expressed as: Some observations of neutron cross sections U235(n,f), inelastic neutron capture via:.

Abstract The fission cross sections of 233 U, 235 U, 238 U and 239 Pu have been measured as a function of neutron energy for neutrons in the energy range 0.030 MeV to 3.0 MeV. In addition, measurements of the ratios of the fission cross sections as a function of neutron energy have been made.
