Excitation Functions of Neutron Induced Nuclear Reactions for ⁵⁹Co Nucleus using Different Level Density Models

Abstract

Co(n,2nα) 54 Mn reactions were obtained by using TALYS 1.8 and ALICE/ASH codes. Effects on the cross section data of nuclear level density models in the calculations were investigated. In addition, the obtained results of the cross section calculations are discussed and compared with the measured values from the literature.

Investigation of nuclear reaction mechanisms of Nickel isotopes at various energies induced by alpha particles

“…The comparison of the computations and experimental results have been given in tables 1-7 and figures 1-7 [5,8,27]. The theoretical calculations have been done by taking the first initial exciton number n 0 =4 with configuration (2n+2p+0 h) PLD, the level density parameter, PLD=CAN 8, has been checked to ensure and know its effects on calculated values of excitation functions [19,24,29]. The evaporation residue nucleus 61 Cu is radioactive and undergoes beta plus decay and its half-life is 3.33 hr [27].…”
