“…In recent decades, both the well-developed electron linacs capable of generating bremsstrahlung photons with energies of tens or more than tens of MeV and the high-quality γ-ray measuring instruments have offered advantages for research on photonuclear reactions. The high-energy photons are able to produce nuclear reactions with a variety of complexity by emitting not only a single nucleon such as (γ, n) [3][4][5][6] or (γ, p) [6][7][8], but also multi-particle emission reactions such as (γ, xn) [9,10] or (γ,xnyp) with x, y ≥ 1 [11].…”

Abstract. The flux-weighted average cross section for the 186W(γ,p)185Ta reaction induced with 70 MeV bremsstrahlung end-point energy was measured using the activation method in combination with off-line gamma activity measurement. The 27Al(γ,2pn)24Na monitor reaction was used for the determination of the bremsstrahlung flux. The bremsstrahlung photons used to produce the photonuclear reactions were generated from a thin tungsten (W) converter by bombardment with a 70 MeV electron beam. The experimental flux-weighted average cross section is compared with the theoretical prediction, for which the absolute cross section was calculated using the TALYS 1.95 code and the bremsstrahlung spectrum was simulated using the computer program MCNPX. The present experiment was carried out at the 100 MeV electron linac of the Pohang Accelerator Laboratory, POSTECH, Pohang, Korea.
