Abstract
A simple theoretical expression has been derived for the geometric dependence of the effective resonance integral of uranium which is independent of the details of resonance structure. Comparison with experiment yields good agreement when the surface absorption is arbitrarily reduced to 60% of the theoretical value.Keywords
