Production cross sections of radionuclides in the proton induced reactions on natural iron with the proton energy of 57 MeV

초록

The production cross sections of 55,56,57Co, 52gFe, 52g,54Mn, 51Cr, and 48V from the natFe (p,x) reactions were measured using a proton energy of 57 MeV at the Korea Multi-purpose Accelerator Complex (KOMAC) in Gyeongju, Korea. The conventional stacked-foil activation method and offline gamma-ray spectroscopy were used to determine the excitation functions of proton induced nuclear reactions on iron. The measured excitation functions were compared with experimental data in literature and theoretical data from the TENDL-2021 library. The present data show generally good agreement with other experimental data, but discrepancies were found between the present data and the excitation functions of the TENDL-2021 library in the investigated energy range, except for 56,57Co and 54Mn.
