A 54Fe(n, n'γ) cross section measurement was performed at the Geel Electron LINear Accelerator of EC-JRC, Geel using the Gamma Array for Inelastic Neutron Scattering spectrometer and a 235U fission chamber for flux normalization. The experimental results are presented in comparison with talys 1.9 default and tuned calculations. The tuned calculation, implying modifications of the optical model parameters, improved significantly the description of the experimental values and led to interesting conclusions regarding the interaction of the 54Fe nucleus with neutrons. Since the results of these calculations were already presented extensively in a dedicated paper, the present article focuses on details related to the experimental particularities and data analysis procedure.

The evaluation are based on mainly on the calculations of the nuclear optical model potential and relevant parameters are collected and selected from References Input Parameter Library (RIPL) which is being developed under the international project coordinated by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The analyzing of a complete energy range has done starting from threshold energy for each reaction. The cross sections are reproduced in fine steps of incident neutron energy with 0.01MeV intervals with their corresponding errors. The recommended cross sections for available experimental data taken from EXFOR library have been calculated for all the considered neutron induced reactions for U-238 isotopes. The calculated results are analyzed and compared with the experimental data. The optimized optical potential model parameters give a very good agreement with the experimental data over the energy range 0.001-20MeV for neutron induced cross section reactions (n,f), (n,tot), (n,el), (n,inl), (n,2n), (n,3n), and (n,γ) for spherical U-238 target elements.

The [Formula: see text] reaction has been studied using 17 MeV deuterons with a vector polarization of ~0.75 from the McMaster University tandem Van de Graaff accelerator. Measurements were made at 18 angles from 6° to 57.5° using a magnetic spectrograph equipped with a position-sensitive proportional counter in the focal plane. It was found that the [Formula: see text] reaction is a very powerful technique for spin determinations in this mass region as the vector analyzing powers have quite large magnitudes. A DWBA calculation with optical model parameters previously optimized to fit cross-section angular distributions was also successful in predicting the analyzing powers for states of known spin and parity. The measured analyzing powers made it possible to give unambiguous spin assignments for over 15 states for which spin information was previously conflicting, incomplete, or lacking.

Cross sections have been measured for the reactions 53Cr(p, y)5 4Mn, 53Cr(p, n)53Mn and 53Cr(p, p/)53Cr over the proton energy range O'88-2'40 MeV. The results are compared with the predictions of statistical model, calculations with global optical model parameters, with particular reference to the role of isobaric analogue resonances. Satisfactory agreement between theory and experiment is achieved for all three reactions.

The elastic scattering of 220 MeV polarized nucleons by carbon and calcium is studied using a new expression for the polarization. Except at small angles of scattering, substantial agreement is obtained with the results of calculations using a simplified form of the WKB method. Optical model parameters are found which are compared with those obtained by other workers for this energy region.

The [Formula: see text] Al cross section and analyzing power angular distributions were measured at Ep = 17.0 MeV. The fits to the cluster DWBA calculations have shown that the analyzing power can play an important role in the determination of the correct optical model parameters.
