Generated heat by different targets irradiated by 660 MeV protons

246-254Calorimetric experiments have been performed to analyze different thick targets of natU, C, Pb material, irradiated by 660 MeV protons at the Phasotron accelerator facility, Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR) in Dubna, Russia. The method of online temperature measurement has been compared with MCNPX 2.7.0 simulation and selected with Ansys Transient Thermal Simulation to compare measured temperature with the simulated one. Thermocouples type T and E have been used as a temperature probe. Many different positions have been measured for each target. Temperature results are following very well the processes inside of the cylinders. Changes of heat deposition caused by drops of the proton beam intensity are displayed very well as a jagged line shown in almost every chart. Accurate temperature changing measurement is a very modest variation of how to observe inner macroscopic behavior online

Measurements of 181Ta(n,2n)180Ta reaction cross-section at the neutron energy of 14.78 MeV

The cross-section of the 181Ta(n,2n)180Ta reaction has been measured with respect to the 197Au(n,2n)196Au monitor reaction at the incident neutron energy of 14.78± 0.20 MeV, using neutron activation analysis and off-line γ-ray spectrometric technique. The present measurement has been done at the energy where discrepant measured results are available in the EXFOR data library. The result has been compared with evaluated data libraries JEFF-3.3 and ENDF/B-VII.1. The present result has also been supported by theoretical predictions of nuclear model code TALYS1.8 and TALYS-1.9. The uncertainty and the correlations among the measured cross-section has been studied using co-variance analysis

Measurement of (n,γ) reaction cross section of 186W-isotope at neutron energy of 20.02±0.58 MeV

The cross-section of 186W(n,γ)187W reaction has been measured at an average neutron energy of 20.02±0.58 MeV by using activation technique. The 27Al(n,α)24Na and 115In(n,n´)115mIn reactions have been used for absolute neutron flux measurement. Theoretically the reaction cross-sections have been calculated by using the TALYS-1.9 code. The results from the present work and the EXFOR based literature data have been compared with the evaluated data and calculated data from TALYS-1.9 code

Astrophysical S factor and reaction rate of

Abstract. Low energy proton capture cross sections on heavy isotopes are necessary for a better understanding of the astrophysical p-process. There are around 35 proton-rich stable isotopes between 74S e and 196Hg which are bypassed by the s- and r- processes. These are commonly referred as p-nuclei whose origin is still not completely understood. In the present study, proton capture reactions are studied on Mo isotopes at astrophysically relevant energies using nuclear modular code TALYS. Astrophysical S factor and reaction rates are also calculated inside a core-collapse supernova. The obtained results are compared with the literature data taken from EXFOR data library. In addition, the effect of different combinations of the nuclear input parameters entering the stellar reaction rate have been investigated

Experimental determination of residual nuclei formation cross sections in 660 MeV proton reactions with 239Pu and natU

The paper gives an information about part of the investigations held in JINR Dubna within cooperation of several research institutions and universities. Experimental cross sections for proton induced reactions of an energy of 660 MeV with various fission products, minor actinides, and "major" actinides (plutonium, uranium, thorium) are studied. The paper describes 239Pu and natU experiments; other experiments have already been published or are planned for the time being. Cross section determination consist of three parts: experiment, data processing, and mathematical codes simulation of the problem. This paper deals only with experiment description and data processing methodology. Neither final results of processing, nor simulation of plutonium experiment are paper-ready at the moment. Uranium data have partially already been presented, final complete results are planned to be published with plutonium results together in reviewed journal
