Abstract

The yields of A(Γ,X)7Be reactions induced by bremsstrahlung photons were measured at the endpoint electron energies of 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, and 90MeV. The spectra of bremsstrahlung incident to the targets used were calculated via a simulation based on the GEANT 4 code passage. The cross sections for the A(γ,X)7Be reactions on 12C, 14N, and 16O nuclei were evaluated on the basis of the measured reaction yields and the calculated bremsstrahlung spectra. The experimental cross sections for the photonuclear reactions of 7Be production were comparedwith their counterparts calculated on the basis of the TALYS 1.4 package. Agreement of the experimental and evaluated results was demonstrated for 12C nuclei and partly for 14N nuclei.
