Simple parametrization of (n,d) cross sections using Flerov and Talyzin's formula.

This article aims at providing new cross section data from empirical formulas for the (n,d) reactions of which experimental measurements at 14-15 MeV energy are not available or limited. If the experimental data for a nuclear reaction at a given energy are scarce, theoretical calculations and also developing empirical formulas have a critical importance. Here, we propose a new empirical formula of (n,d) reactions for analysis of the relationship between the experimental data and the parameters of empirical formula.

Obtaining a new empirical (n,2n) cross section formula using Flerov and Talyzin non-elastic cross sections at 14-15 MeV.

The knowledge of (n,2n) cross sections is required in shielding and breeding calculations. It's also important, in nuclear reactor applications, for neutron dosimetry research. In nuclear reaction mechanism, (n,2n) reaction channel is the dominant reaction for medium and heavy mass nuclei at 14 MeV energy range.

Investigation of (γ, p) reaction cross-section calculations of Ca, Ge and Zr isotopes.

Calcium, Germanium and Zirconium isotopes can be used in semiconductors, fuel rods and as cooling materials in nuclear reactor technology. During the various occurred reactions in reactors, gas production via gamma reactions or temperature rise can severely damage the reactor materials. Therefore, it is necessary to know the effects of particles interacting with nuclear reactor materials in such cases.

A new formulae study for the (n,2p) reaction cross-section systematics at 14-15 MeV.

The cross-section calculation systematics for nuclear reactions have great importance in describing the particle-induced excitation of nuclei. In this study, for 14-15 MeV of incident neutron energy, it has been suggested new empirical formulae to describe the (n, 2p) reactions cross sections. The new empirical formulae have been obtained for 29≤A≤159, 29≤A≤103 and 133≤A≤159 mass ranges which are dependent on s=(N-Z)/A asymmetry parameter.

A survey of distribution of terrestrial radionuclides in surface soil samples in and around the Osmaniyeprovince, Turkey.

The purpose of this survey was to determine the distribution of terrestrial radionuclides ((238)U, (232)Th and (40)K) in surface soil samples collected from different locations in and around Osmaniye and assess the radiological implications of outdoor external exposure. The activity concentrations of (238)U, (232)Th and (40)K in soil samples ranged from 2.6 to 38.
