Abstract

Neutron yields were determined by measuring the activities produced in the INEL manganese bath. Of the three fission methods used, the neutron-fission coincidence method was found to be the most consistent and reliable. The value of /sup 252/Cf anti ..nu.. obtained by these measurements was 3.764. (RWR)
