Abstract
A stack of natural samarium was bombarded with 87 MeV α-particles. Cumulative cross sections for the production of145Eu,146Eu,147Eu,148Eu,150Eu,152Eu and154Eu have been studied using gamma-ray spectroscopy. The data are compared with the theoretical results provided by equilibrium and pre-equilibrium reaction models, for this purpose we used the code ALICE of Blann.
