Theoretical calculation of kerma coefficients for n+ ¹⁶ O reaction below 30 MeV

Abstract

On the basis of the light nuclear reaction model, a new kerma coefficient formula has been developed. In terms of the analysis for n+16 O reactions below 30 MeV, the average energies of all kinds of the emitted particles are presented. The calculated partial kerma coefficients agree well with the existing experimental data. The discrepancies of the total kerma coefficients between the calculation and the measurement are analyzed in detail.

Theoretical analysis of double-differential neutron emission cross sections for n+ 56 Fe reactions at incident energies of 7–13 MeV

“…Neutron-induced reactions on medium mass nuclei are different from those on light nuclei reactions, in which particle emissions between the discrete levels dominates the whole reaction process [14][15][16][17]. For the n+ 56 Fe (medium mass nucleus) reaction, contributions to the DDXs come mainly from transitions from continuum states to discrete levels, as well as from continuum states to continuum states.…”
