Abstract

The cross sections of deuteron-induced nuclear reactions have a critical importance on future fusion devices. In this study, the Coulomb and asymmetry term effects for the cross sections of (d, 2n) nuclear reactions have been investigated. The reaction cross sections have been calculated by using empirical formulas depended on the asymmetry parameter for incident deuteron energies between 11.57 and 18.91 MeV. The results obtained from the formulas have been discussed and compared with the TENDL-2013 online library data, the code ALICE/ASH calculations (equilibrium Weisskopf Ewing, pre-equilibrium hybrid and geometry dependent hybrid theories) and the experimental values in literature. The present empirical formulas predictions of the reaction cross sections show generally good agreement with the model results and experimental values.
