Abstract:Excitation functions were measured by stacked-foil activation technique for the 150 Nd(p, xpyn) reaction using 97.65% enriched 150 Nd target. Measurement up to ∼50% above barrier and down to 18% below the barrier was performed using proton beam energy (Ep) of 7 -15 MeV from VECC Cyclotron. The yield of suitable γ rays emitted following the decay of relevant evaporation residues was determined using a 50% High Purity Germanium (HPGe) detector.(p,n) cross section was found to follow the expected trend with a max… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
