Abstract
We present results of measurements of the total cross section for neutrons on a variety of nuclei in the momentum range 30 to 270 GeV/c. The measurements were made with the standard transmission technique and have a typical accuracy ∼1%. The cross sections are compared with theoretical predictions. It is found that a correction for inelastic screening in the nucleus is required. The cross sections are found to vary as over the entire energy range.
