The polarization and differential cross sections for neutrons scattered from Zr, Nb, Mo, and Cd were measured at five angles for neutron energies between 0.275 and 0.85 Mev. The results were analyzed in terms of a local optical model equivalent to the noniocal model of Perey. The analysis leads to the following major conclusions; the calculations, corrected for the effects of compound elastic scattering, are consistent with most of the observed scattering data, particularly when a spin-orbit potential that includes both a real and imaginary term of the Thomas type is employed; and calculations (based on this model) of the magnitude and shape of the P-wave neutron strength function in the region near A = 100 are not very sensitive to the parameters of the spin-orbit potential -- at least when the real term is between 7 and 2 Mev and the imaginary term is between 0 and 7 Mev.

This book provides the experimental condensed-matter researcher with a description of the variety of material characteristics which can now be investigated with polarized neutrons. Included are two extensive chapters on basic theory and currently available instrumentation, and a presentation and discussion of scientific results obtained from a wide range of experiments: diffraction, critical reflection, elastic and inelastic polarization analysis, and neutron spin precession methods like spin-echo spectroscopy.

NSA is a comprehensive collection of international nuclear science and technology literature for the period 1948 through 1976, pre-dating the prestigious INIS database, which began in 1970. NSA existed as a printed product (Volumes 1-33) initially, created by DOE's predecessor, the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission (AEC). NSA includes citations to scientific and technical reports from the AEC, the U.S. Energy Research and Development Administration and its contractors, plus other agencies and international organizations, universities, and industrial and research organizations. References to books, conference proceedings, papers, patents, dissertations, engineering drawings, and journal articles from worldwide sources are also included. Abstracts and full text are provided if available.
