Gruppelaar, H; van den Bos, B P.J.

In recent fission-product cross section libraries, evaluated (n,p) and (n,alpha) cross sections are lacking for most of the nuclides. To estimate these cross sections, calculations have been performed with a semi-empirical model. The calculated excitation functions were renormalized at 14.5 MeV to experimental data, recently compiled by Qaim, or to date from recent systematics of Kumabe and Fukuda. The shapes of the excitation functions were checked against available experimental data. Group cross sections of pseudo fission products for a fast power reactor at a burn-up of 41 MWd/kg have been calculated.
