Abstract

The activation cross sections were measured at six neutron energies from 13.57 and 14.83MeV for 152Sm(n,p) 152gPm, 152Sm(n,p) 152mPm reactions. The production of short-lived activity and the spectra accumulation have been carried out by the cyclic activation method. Statistical model calculations, which the pre-equilibrium emission effects were taken into consideration were also performed (STAPRE code). The cross sections were compared with works in the literature, model calculation results, and evaluation data bases (ENDF/B-VII, JENDL-3.3, JEFF-3.1).
