Abstract

The excitation function for the 63Cu(n, p) 63Ni reaction were measured using neutrons produced by the T(p, n) reaction at En=∼1.5 MeV, D(d, n) at En=∼6.5 MeV and T(d, n) at En=∼14 MeV, respectively. Irradiations were performed using the dynamitron accelerator at the Fast Neutron Laboratory of Tohoku University. After irradiation, the nickel was separated by anion-exchange and solvent extraction. The 63Ni was measured by liquid scintillation method. The cross sections obtained were compared with the calculated values of JENDL-3.
