Abstract
Gamma-ray yields as a function of neutron energy for tantalum and tungsten have been generated with a combined experimental and theoretical approach. The results are presented in a format that would facilitate use in coupled neutron gamma-ray transport calculations. In the case of tungsten, pronounced variations in the capture yield spectra were noticed above 3.0 MeV. On the other hand, only slight variations in the yield spectra were evident for tantalum. The results have been compared with integral gamma-ray yield measurements and the agreement is favorable.
