Measurement of Cumulative fission product yields on U induced by 2.8 MeV neutrons.

Off-line gamma-ray spectrometry was used to accurately measure the Cumulative fission product yields (CFPYs) of fission products in the U (n, f) reaction induced by 2.8 MeV neutrons. The 2.

Room temperature ferromagnetism in D-D neutron irradiated rutile TiO single crystals.

Room temperature ferromagnetism (RTFM) was observed in unirradiated rutile TiO single crystals prepared by the floating zone method due to oxygen vacancy (V) defects. D-D neutrons mainly collide elastically with TiO, producing V, titanium vacancies (V) and other point defects; the density and kind of defect is related to the neutron irradiation fluence. D-D neutron irradiation is used to regulate the concentration and type of defect, avoiding impurity elements.

Measurements of the cross section for the (182)W(n,p)(182(m+g))Ta and (184)(n,p)(184)Ta reactions in the 14MeV energy range using the activation technique.

The cross section for the (182)W(n,p)(182(m+g))Ta and (184)W(n,p)(184)Ta reactions has been measured in the neutron energy range of 13.5-14.7MeV using the activation technique and a coaxial HPGe γ-ray detector.

Measurement of fission cross section for 232Th(n,x)89Rb reaction induced by neutrons around 14 MeV.

In order to investigate the fission process in more detail, and to compare with the measurement of cumulative fission yields, the fission cross section of the (232)Th(n,x)(89)Rb reaction induced by 14 MeV neutron was measured using the activation technique. In our measurement the neutron flux was determined using the monitor (27)Al(n,α)(24)Na reaction, and the neutron energies were measured by the method of cross-section ratios of (90)Zr(n,2n)(89)Zr to (93)Nb(n,2n)(92m)Nb reactions. The cross sections were deduced as 14.

Cross-section measurement for the reactions producing short-lived nuclei induced by neutrons around 14 MeV.

The cross-sections of 180W(n,2n)179mW, 186W(n,2n)185mW, 165Ho(n,2n)164mHo, 64Ni(n,alpha)61Fe, 165Ho(n,alpha)162Tb and 51V(n,p)51Ti reactions induced by neutrons around 14 MeV were measured using activation technique and calculated by a previously developed formula in this work. The neutron flux was determined using the monitor reactions 93Nb(n,2n)92mNb and 27Al(n,alpha)24Na, the neutron energies were measured with the method of cross-section ratios for 90Zr(n,2n)89Zr to 93Nb(n,2n)92mNb reactions. The results of this work are compared with data published previously.
