Abstract

Total neutron cross sections, using a continuous-energy source of neutrons, were measured for hydrogen and deuterium. The neutron energy range covered was from less than 1 MeV, to about 30 MeV. No structure is observed for either isotope. The precision of the cross-section magnitudes appears to be within 1 % over much of the measured energy interval.
