Abstract:
When measuring(n,
xnγ) partial γ-ray cross section of heavy fissionable nuclei, the technique of coincidence measurement was applied to depress Compton platform and background of energy spectrum. Five energy points of
56Fe(n,
xnγ) cross sections were measured directly by two Clover detectors on 600 kV Cockcroff-Walton accelerator in CIAE, and then the offline data analysis at 1 238.3 keV was performed by using the coincidence technique. The result is approximately the same as direct measurement result and the availability of the technique of coincidence measurement is proved.
