Abstract
The cross sections for the formation of isomeric states in the reactions (γ, n) and (n, 2n) on the 81Br nucleus were measured by the induced activity method. The energy dependence of the isomeric ratio of the reaction yields (γ, n) in the energy range 14–35 MeV with a step of 1 MeV was obtained. The experimental results are compared with the data of other works and the TALYS-1.6 calculation.
