The radius of the sphere was 10-30 3127600100012 cm which corresponds to the optimum thermal neutron 3127600100013 output from a paraffin wax moderator 3127600100014 INC-SPECT Thermal spectrum. 3127600100015 SAMPLE Precise B-10 abundance in sample is unknown. 3127600100016 Three different concentrations of the boric acid 3127600100017 solution (1.254,1.481 and 1.675 g/100 c.c of solution)3127600100018 METHOD (TRN) Spherical transmission method 3127600100019 DETECTOR The outcoming neutrons were detected by an indium foil 3127600100020 of thickness 110 g/cm2. The indium foil was activated 3127600100021 for nearly five half-lives of 116In, and the induced 3127600100022 activity was followed for 1.5 hrs. The counting rate 3127600100023 was extrapolated to zero time. Initial activity due 3127600100024 to thermal neutrons only was obtained by the cadmium 3127600100025 difference technique. 3127600100026 STATUS (TABLE) Table 2 of Proc.Ind.Acad.Sci.A27(1961)216 3127600100027 HISTORY (19771115T) Converted from EXFOR 70276 3127600100028 (20090912A) SD:Updated to new date formats,lower case. 3127600100029 Cosmetic changes.
