Abstract

The total neutron cross section of manganese has been measured from 0.01 eV to about 50 keV and a multilevel analysis of the data from 0.01 eV to 15 keV has been carried out. This analysis shows that the strength function is

\frac{{\bar{Γ}}_{n}^{0}}{D} = {9.5}_{- 2.5}^{+ 6.5} \times 10^{- 4}

and that the potential-scattering amplitude for the

J = 3

series of levels is substantially less than 4 F.
