Neutron capture reactions

MAR 01, 1960
John H. Manley

A topical conference of the American Physical Society was held at the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory on October 1–3, 1959. The Conference on Neutron Capture Reactions was conducted in four nonoverlapping sessions with generally adequate time for discussion. The major Western Europe and Western Hemisphere laboratories with active groups working on slow neutron phenomena were represented. In all, there were some eighty visitors, nine of whom represented foreign laboratories. Thirty‐nine technical papers were presented. The arrangements were handled by a local committee: H. T. Motz (chairman), R. E. Carter, B. C. Diven, J. Terrell, and C. W. Zabel.
