Excitation curves for the reactions Fe56(n, p)Mn56 and Co59(n, α)Mn56 have been measured by the activation method from near threshold energies to 20.3 Mev. The measurements are relative to the known cross section for the S32(n, p)P32 reaction. Cross sections for both reactions increase smoothly with neutron energy and reach maximum values of 119 ± 4 mb for the Fe56(n, p) reaction at 13.6 Mev and 30.0 ± 0.9 mb for the Co59(n, α) reaction at 14.5 Mev. Above 15 Mev both cross sections decrease with neutron energy. From the excitation curves effective cross-section values for a fission-neutron spectrum have been calculated as 1.04 ± 0.05 mb for the (n, p) reaction and 0.140 ± 0.007 mb for the (n, α) reaction.

Fission Neutron Spectrum

Excitation curves for the reactions 115In(n,n′) 115Inm, 113In(n,n′)113Inm, and 115In(n,2n)114Inm have been measured by the activation method. The neutron flux at energies below 5.1 MeV was determined with a calibrated neutron long counter while at higher energies, measurements were made relative to the known cross section for the 32S(n,p) reaction. Effective cross sections for a 235U fission-neutron spectrum calculated from our measured excitation curves are 173 ± 9 mb for 115In(n,n′)115Inm, 123 ± 24 mb for 113In(n,n′)113Inm, and 0.64 ± 0.06 mb for 115In(n,2n)114Inm.
