Abstract

The activation cross-sections for sixteen (n, p) and (n, α) reactions on rare earth nuclides were measured at 14.8 MeV neutron energy. A Ge(Li) detector was used for the radioactivity measurements. The measured cross-sections are compared with the semi-empirical predictions of LEVKOVSKII3 and BAYHURST and PRESTWOOD.16
