E.J. Axton’s experimental database adopted in evaluation of thermal neutron constants by himself and also by a recent project to update the IAEA Neutron Standard was checked against the experimental literature and EXFOR library. We discovered that many data are found neither in the EXFOR library nor in the articles quoted by Axton due to various reasons. This paper summarizes the status of the experimental data cited by Axton in the experimental literature as well as in the EXFOR library.
