Abstract
Four types of gas producing reactions induced by thermal neutrons have been studied at an intense thermal neutron beam of the Grenoble High Flux Reactor.
-
(i)
hydrogen,tritium and helium production during the ternary fission process for several actinides.
-
(ii)
hydrogen and helium production via (nth,p) and (nth,α) reactions on structural materials like V,Zn and Mo.
-
(iii)
helium production via (nth,α) reactions on fission products like Ru.Pd,Cd and Sn.
-
(iv)
helium production via (nth,α) reactions on actinides from 232Th to 239Pu.
Gas producing cross-sections ranging from a few barn to smaller than one microbarn have been observed
