A Method of Determining the Bremsstrahlung Flux-Weighted Average Photonuclear Cross Section.
Applied radiation and isotopes(2024)
Abstract
Based on a developed analytical model, a method is proposed for measuring the photonuclear cross section averaged over bremsstrahlung flux without application of additional target-monitor of photon flux. The method involves the use of a thin isotopic target, that completely overlaps the photon beam (a photonuclear converter), as well as an algorithm for processing the data on the yield of a reaction under study in such a target. The novel technique was validated on the reactions 100Mo(gamma,n)99Mo and 58Ni(gamma,n)57Ni in the range of photon end-point energy of 40.7-93.9 MeV. The photon flux-weighted average cross sections of the reactions measured experimentally are in good agreement with Monte Carlo simulations and TALYS predictions on their excitation functions.
