“…The latter possibility is substantiated by recent Columbia data 14 and earlier Harwell data. 15 Similarly, the resonance at 33.5 eV which shows up in the Gd 155 transmission data cannot be totally accounted for in terms of contributions due to Gd 156 . Gd 155 must then have a resonance at about this energy.…”

The neutron resonance structure of the gadolinium isotopes Gd 155 , Gd 156 , Gd 157 , Gd 168 , and Gd 160 has been investigated over a wide energy region to determine the s-wave neutron strength functions, resonance parameters, and potential scattering radii. Values of the neutron strength functions as derived from an analysis of the average cross section in the keV region are found to be 2.4±0.2, 1.9=1=0.4, and 2.2=fc0.2, all in units of 1CT 4 , for Gd 155 , Gd 156 , and Gd 157 , respectively. For Gd 158 and Gd 160 , the values, as obtained from the resonance parameters, are 1.6=1=0.6 and 2.5=1=1.3. In addition, the 2200-m/sec cross sections and absorption resonance integrals are computed and are compared with available experimental data.
