NEUTRON ACTIVATION CROSS-SECTIONS WITH 14.8 MEV NEUTRONS IN THE REGION OF THE 82-NEUTRON CLOSED SHELL (thesis)

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4224758
Fifty activation cross sections for (n,p), (n,q), and (n,2n) reactions on 27 stable nuclides of elements Ba, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Dy, Er, Yb, and Lu were measured using 14.8 plus or minus 0.8 Mev neutrons from the T(d,n)He/ sup 4/ reaction. Total fluxes of 10/sup 10/ to l0/sup 11/ n/sec were obtained from the University of Arkansas 400 k Cockcroft-Walton accelerator. The chemical form of the bombarded elements and the method of chemical separation are discussed individually for each element. (W.D.M)
