^{100,101,102,104,}Ru(n, γ) and ¹⁰³Rh(n, γ) Cross Sections Above 2.6 keV

Neutron capture by the heavier stable ruthenium isotopes and by natural rhodium has been measured at the Oak Ridge Electron Linear Accelerator time-of-flight facility up to 500 to 700 keV. Most of these isotopes are important as fission products. Strength functions S⁰, S¹, S², and S^γ were fitted to the average cross sections derived for the pure isotopes up to 113 keV. Resonance parameters were fitted for ∼100 cross-section peaks for each isotope.
