The total neutron production from the alpha induced reaction on natural Zirconium
A significant amount of alpha particles, upto 35 MeV are produced in
the reactor environment. Alpha induced reaction on natural Zirconium, a reactor
component, upto 40 MeV has been measured using stacked foil activation
technique. The total neutron production cross section from all possible
channels for energies upto 35 MeV is also estimated using TALYS 1.96.
The isomeric cross section ratio for the production of the radionuclide
has been measured and reported for the first time
