Neutron interaction/absorbtion length of lithium-6 deutride?

[Arun S. Johnson]

Could anyone tell me or direct me to a source with an answer or way to calculate the neutron aborbtion/interaction length of lithium-6 deutride? I would have expected this answer to be readily available from the government experiments leading up to castle bravo, but I cannot seem to find it. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Try the above.

Thanks to both of you, but neither site seems to have the right information; is there a way one could calculate the neutron absorption length given the absorption cross section and the ionic radius of both lithium and hydrogen, since the crystals are a simple cubic structure.

The sites have the information you need to calculate this, if you know about the Beer-Lambert law. If you don't know about the Beer-Lambert law, look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beer–Lambert_law
