            Beam temperature 1.7 millieV.                         1384600100013 
SAMPLE     2.318-g radiogenic lead sample; 72.3 atom % 208Pb,     1384600100014 
            held under vacuum in magnesium alloy chamber.         1384600100015 
           Sample oriented at 45 degrees to neutron beam.         1384600100016
