Distribution of Partial Neutron Widths for Nuclei close to a Maximum of the Neutron Strength Function

Nuclear Theory 2011-04-14 v1

Abstract

For nuclei near a maximum of the neutron strength function, the secular dependence on energy E of s-wave partial neutron widths differs from the canonical form given by the square root of E. We derive the universal form of that dependence and show that it is expected to significantly influence the analysis of neutron resonance data.
