Abstract
The total cross sections of over 50 elements were measured in good geometry for 14-Mev neutrons. A plot of the square root of the total cross section versus the one-third power of the atomic weight shows deviations from the linear relationship predicted by statistical theory. The deviations are most pronounced for the heaviest elements.Keywords
