How to calculate/get info about inelastic scattered neutron?

[QUOTE="Freemann, post: 5506756, member: 597737"] Update: Ok, I think I got it. I found this interesting resource: [URL]http://web.utk.edu/~rpevey/NE406/lesson8.htm[/URL] It looks like important is to know the first excited state of the nuclei after the scattering with an incident neutron with an energy E. This 1st excited state gives the Q-value, which is used to calculate the energy threshold of the inelastic scatter interaction: [ATTACH=full]188762[/ATTACH] Knowing Et and E the ratio Δ between them is calculated as: [ATTACH=full]188763[/ATTACH] And then an energy interval for the inelastically scattered neutron can be calculated: [ATTACH=full]188764[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]188765[/ATTACH] The excitation states of the nuclides can be found here: http://www.nndc.bnl.gov/chart/ So if I did not understand something wrong this looks also pretty straightforward :smile: [/QUOTE]
