The possibilities and the conditions of using resonance detectors for investigation of slow neutrons in the atmosphere are discussed. The epithermal neutron fluxes from the lower hemisphere were measured by means of the indium foil activation method in June 1966 at the geomagnetic latitude 47°. Assuming the epithermal atmospheric neutron spectrum to be Φ(E) = Φ0/E and expressing the neutron energy in eV, we obtain the following values of Φ0 (neutron cm−2 s−1) from our measurements: 0.078 ± 0.019 (at a depth x = 40 g cm−2), 0.049 ± 0.015 (x = 22 g cm−2), 0.023 ± 0.010 (x = 8 g cm−2). It is pointed out that resonance detectors can be used to study the spectra of epithermal neutrons in nonequilibrium atmospheric layers.

An accurate measurement of the 235U(n,f) cross section from thermal to 170 keV of neutron energy has recently been performed at n_TOF facility at CERN using 6Li(n,t)4He and 10B(n,α)7Li as references. This measurement has been carried out in order to investigate a possible overestimation of the 235U fission cross section evaluation provided by most recent libraries between 10 and 30 keV. A custom experimental apparatus based on in-beam silicon detectors has been used, and a Monte Carlo simulation in GEANT4 has been employed to characterize the setup and calculate detectors efficiency. The results evidenced the presence of an overestimation in the interval between 9 and 18 keV and the new data may be used to decrease the uncertainty of 235U(n,f) cross section in the keV region.
