Calculations for the excitation functions of {sup 63}Cu(n,p){sup 63}Ni, {sup 63}Cu(n,np){sup 62}Ni, {sup 63}Cu(n,{alpha}){sup 60}Co, {sup 63}Cu(n,{alpha}){sup 60m}Co, {sup 63}Cu(n,{alpha}n){sup 59}Co, {sup 63}Cu(n,n'){sup 63}Cu, and {sup 63}Cu(n,2n){sup 62}Cu reactions were carried out using Hauser-Feshbach and preequilibrium reaction theories for neutrons in the 1- to 20-MeV energy range. The results have been compared with reported measurements and standard evaluations.
