The calculation are based mainly on 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 CINDA library have been calculated for all the considered neutron induced reactions for spherical U-235 and 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-235 and U-238 target elements.

The evaluation is based mainly on the calculations of the nuclear optical model potential and the relevant parameters which are collected and selected from References Input Parameter Library (RIPL-3) which is being developed under the international project coordinated by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The analyzing of a complete energy range has been 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 Dy (Z=66; A=162-164) 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 13.4-14.87MeV for neutron induced cross section reactions (n,p) for spherical Dy-162 target element, (n,2H), (n,d), (n,n+p),and (n,p) for spherical Dy-163 target element, and (n,2H) and (n,p) for spherical Dy-164 target element.

A new set of global phenomenological optical model potential (OMP) parameters for alpha projectile is obtained by simultaneously fitting the experimental data of reaction cross-sections and elastic scattering angular distributions in the mass range of target nuclei [Formula: see text] at incident energies below 386[Formula: see text]MeV. The total reaction cross-sections and elastic scattering angular distributions are calculated and compared with experimental data for different targets. A satisfactory agreement is presented between them.

Based on the obtained [Formula: see text] global optical model potential, the global phenomenological optical model potential for [Formula: see text] projectile is obtained by fitting the experimental data of [Formula: see text] elastic scattering angular distributions from [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text] targets with incident energies below 100[Formula: see text]MeV. Using the found global optical model potential, the reaction cross-sections are predicted and compared with the available experimental data. Moreover, the elastic-scattering angular distributions and reaction cross-sections for isotopic chain [Formula: see text] projectiles are predicted by the [Formula: see text] global optical model potential at different incident energies. These results are also compared with the corresponding experimental data. The performance shows that the [Formula: see text] global phenomenological optical model potentials can give a satisfactory description for elastic scattering of these projectiles.

A set of global [Formula: see text]He phenomenological optical model potential (OMP) parameters with incident energies up to 250[Formula: see text]MeV is obtained. They are based on a smooth, unique functional form for the energy dependence of the potential depths, and on physically constrained geometry parameters. The available experimental data including the reaction cross-sections and elastic scattering angular distributions from target [Formula: see text]Li to [Formula: see text]Bi are used. The global OMP parameters obtained for [Formula: see text]He are analyzed and used to calculate the reaction for [Formula: see text]He projectile. It is found that the present form of the global OMP can reproduce the experimental data for [Formula: see text]He and [Formula: see text]He projectiles.

Based on the Perey–Buck nonlocal optical model potential, F. Perey and B. Buck, Nucl. Phys. 32 (1962) 353, we obtain a new set of nonlocal optical model potential (NLOMP) parameters for proton and neutron scattering off nuclei. The experimental angular distributions of nucleon scattering off nuclei ranging from 27 Al to 208 Pb with incident energies around 10 MeV to 30 MeV are adopted in the fitting procedures. This NLOMP is energy independent. The chi-squares χ2 obtained in the fittings are comparable to those from the KD03 phenomenological local optical model potentials (OMP) A. Koning and J. Delaroche, Nucl. Phys. A 713 (2003) 231. Good agreement is found in comparisons between optical model calculations using this NLOMP and KD03 in their reproduction to the experimental angular distributions of elastic scattering cross-sections and analyzing powers.

The total cross sections for electron scattering from He, Ne, Ar, Kr and Xe in the energy range from 100 eV to 10 000 eV have been calculated based on the optical-model potential. Our theoretical results are compared with the available experimental data. The consistency between them is also discussed. At higher energies (over 2000 eV for He, over 5000 eV for Ne, Ar, Kr and Xe), the total cross sections of electron scattering from these atoms are scarce, so our calculations will give a reference for further experimental and theoretical studies.

The elastic scattering angular distributions of triton are calculated by the obtained systematic helium-3 global optical model potential parameters and compared with the available experimental data. These results show that the present global optical model potential can give a reasonable description of the elastic scattering of triton. The total reaction cross-sections of triton as a function of energy per nucleon are also further investigated and the reasonable results are presented.

The 7Li + 11 Β reaction has been studied in the energy range from a little below to about three times the Coulomb barrier by measuring the cross section of the 7- ray transitions in the residual nuclei produced. Statistical compound nucleus calculations have been performed in order to interpret the experimental data as well as to extract cross sections of the individual exit channels. The statistical compound nucleus theory can reproduce rather well the absolute j - ray and the various reaction channel excitation functions.

AbstractDespite its insufficient availability, Copper-67 is currently attracting much attention for its enormous potential for cancer therapy as theranostic radionuclide. This work aims to accurately measure the unexplored cross section 70Zn(p,x)67Cu in the energy range 45–70 MeV and to evaluate its potential advantages in the case of high-intensity proton beams provided by compact cyclotrons. Thin target foils of enriched 70Zn were manufactured by lamination at the INFN-LNL and irradiated at the ARRONAX facility using the stacked-foils method. A radiochemical procedure for the separation of Cu, Ga and Zn contaminants and the isolation of 67Cu from the irradiated material was developed. The efficiency of the chemical processing was determined for each foil by monitoring the activity of selected tracer radionuclides (61Cu, 66Ga and 69mZn) through γ-spectrometry. Experimental data of the 70Zn(p,x)67Cu, 64Cu, 67Ga, 66Ga, 69mZn, 65Zn cross sections were measured for the first time in the energy range 45–70 MeV and compared with the theoretical results obtained by using the TALYS code. The 67Cu production yield by using enriched 70Zn thick targets was compared with the results obtained by using 68Zn targets in the same irradiation conditions.
