Table 2.

Typical uncertainty sources encountered in Mn-bath measurements of and are listed along with realistic ranges of estimates if none are provided for a particular measurement. Also, correlation coefficients for each uncertainty source between different experiments are roughly estimated. No correlation coefficient is given between uncertainties of the same experiment at different incident-neutron energies as Mn-bath measurements are usually undertaken at one incident-neutron energy (thermal) or for spontaneous fission. A medium-range correlation would correspond to correlation coefficients of 0.5–0.8, while “Low” corresponds to approximately 0.2.
