Nuclear cross section

The nuclear cross section of a nucleus is a concept used to describe the probability that a nuclear reaction will occur. It can be quantified physically as "characteristic area", denoted as σ {\displaystyle \sigma } , where a larger σ {\displaystyle \sigma } means a larger probability of interaction. The standard unit for σ {\displaystyle \sigma } is the…
