Procedures are described for (a) the separation by ion exchange chromatography of submicrogram quantities of Ac227 from its daughters and (b) the absolute determination of Ac227 by measurement of the rate of growth of α-particle emission from an initially pure source. These procedures are utilized in the determination of the reactor and thermal neutron capture cross sections and the resonance capture integral of Ac227 by an activation method.Assuming 36.5 barns for the thermal neutron capture cross section of Co59, a value of σ2200 = 814 ± 13 barns has been obtained for Ac227. The resonance capture integral (from 0.5 ev to ∞) was found to be 1177 ± 19 barns relative to 48.6 barns for the resonance capture integral of Co59.

The thermal neutron capture cross sections of Na23 and Mn55 have been determined using the activation method. The values are 0.53 ± 0.03 and 12.7 ± 0.3 barns respectively with respect to σAul97 = 93 barns. These agree well with recent pile oscillator results. The half-life for Mn56 is found to be 2.576 ± 0.002 hr.

The thermal neutron capture cross section of radioactive Au198 has been measured by the activation method as 26,000 ± 1200 barns, assuming 99 barns for the thermal neutron cross section of Au197. Metallic Au197 was bombarded in fluxes up to 9 × 1013 thermal neutrons cm.−2 sec.−1 to produce a mixture of Au198 and Au199 by the successive neutron capture reactions Au197(n, γ)Au198(n, γ)Au199. The ratio of the Au199 activity to Au198 activity so produced yields σc(Au197). In a preliminary experiment, the half-life of Au199 was measured as 3.148 ± 0.010 days.
