The Cross

There are 35 proton-rich isotopes between 74Se and 196Hg that cannot be synthesized through neutron captures and β− decays (s- and r-processes). A third process is therefore required for the production of these nuclei, the so-called p-process. The abundance and the origin of the p-nuclei are still not fully understood even though significant experimental and theoretical efforts in astrophysical modeling have been expended in the last two decades. The experimental studies with the activation method to measure cross sections of the relevant reactions have some limitations: the reaction product must be radioactive, should have an appropriate half-life, and its decay should be followed by proper γ-radiations. If the cross section cannot be calculated with the radiation followed by the first beta decay of the product, it can be measured using the second beta decay as an alternative method. In this study, the method and candidate reactions for the cross-section measurements via the second beta decay of the reaction product using the activation method are discussed.

Excitation curves for the reactions 115In(n,n′) 115Inm, 113In(n,n′)113Inm, and 115In(n,2n)114Inm have been measured by the activation method. The neutron flux at energies below 5.1 MeV was determined with a calibrated neutron long counter while at higher energies, measurements were made relative to the known cross section for the 32S(n,p) reaction. Effective cross sections for a 235U fission-neutron spectrum calculated from our measured excitation curves are 173 ± 9 mb for 115In(n,n′)115Inm, 123 ± 24 mb for 113In(n,n′)113Inm, and 0.64 ± 0.06 mb for 115In(n,2n)114Inm.

The original version of the activation method is presented and yield of the astrophysical relevant reaction [Formula: see text] has been measured at the energy region 190–650[Formula: see text]keV using this method. The rate of this reaction was calculated within the temperature region [Formula: see text] through the yield values. The possibility of improving the method for measuring very small yields or cross sections was demonstrated.

The 72,73Ge(n,p)72,73Ga reaction cross sections were measured at the 5.5MV HV Tandem accelerator of  NCSR “Demokritos”, at neutron energies 17.7 and 19.3 MeV by using the activation method. The contamination from the (n,d) and (n,np)  reactions  on 73Ge and 74 Ge, leading to the 72Ge and 73Ge residual nuclei, respectively, has been  taken  into account, implementing the corresponding cross sections from  TENDL-2017. A systematic investigation of the isotopic effect on all Ge isotopes is also presented, from threshold up  to 20MeV, using the present data along with existing data in literature

The cross-sections for the formation of \(^{89}\)Nb and  \(^{90}\)Nb radionuclides in proton induced nuclear reactions on zirconium  were measured by using the well known activation method. The natural  zirconium (\(^{nat}\)Zr) target and copper (\(^{nat}\)Cu) monitor foils were  irradiated by 27.7 MeV proton beam at the MC50 Cyclotron of the Korea  Institute of Radiological and Medical Science (KIRAMS), Korea. The induced  gamma activities of the reaction products were measured by a coaxial high  purity germanium (HPGe) detector coupled to a PC-based multichannel  analyzer. The obtained cross sections for each nuclide are compared with  those existing in literature and with the theoretical cross sections  calculated by the TALYS - 1.4 code.

Cross sections for the production of 103Rhm were measured by the activation method. At energies below 5.3 MeV the neutron flux was measured with a calibrated neutron long counter, while at higher energies, measurements were made relative to the known cross section for the 32S(n,p)32P reaction. The shape of the Rh excitation curve is discussed in terms of known energy levels in 103Rh. An effective cross section for a 235U fission neutron spectrum calculated from the measured excitation curve is 724 ± 43 mb.
