A wave of new U.S.-U.K. deals ahead of Trump’s state visit
President Trump will arrive in the United Kingdom this week for a state visit that promises to include the usual pomp and ceremony alongside the signing of a landmark new agreement on U.S.-U.K. nuclear collaboration.

Differential cross sections for neutron-induced gamma-ray production from thorium have been measured for incident neutron energies between 0.3 and 20.0 MeV. The Oak Ridge Electron Linear Accelerator was used as a neutron source. A Nal spectrometer at 125 deg detected the gamma rays. Data include the doubly differential cross section, d2σ/dΩdEγ, for gamma-ray energies between 0.3 and 10.6 MeV and the integrated gamma-ray yield as a function of the incident neutron energy.
