  34. Summary • all 62Ni data are processed • normalization in good agreement for different Wf and different resonances • Discrepancy between MGAS and MCNPX flux shape • Neutron scattering most crucial background • possible to extract cross section at thermal • Resonances can be identified up to approx. 200 keV • Data are more in favour of JENDL-4.0 (compared to ENDF/B-VII) Claudia Lederer n_TOF collaboration meeting, 15.-17. 12. 2010, Seville
