Cross sections have been measured for the reactions 53Cr(p, y)5 4Mn, 53Cr(p, n)53Mn and 53Cr(p, p/)53Cr over the proton energy range O'88-2'40 MeV. The results are compared with the predictions of statistical model, calculations with global optical model parameters, with particular reference to the role of isobaric analogue resonances. Satisfactory agreement between theory and experiment is achieved for all three reactions.

Reaction Cross Sections

Nuclear reaction cross sections derived from statistical-model calculations have been used in the calculation of thermonuclear reaction rates for 36 nuclei at temperatures that are representative of the interiors of evolving stars and supernovae as nucleosynthesis approaches the production of nuclei with N = 28. The statistical-model calculations used optical-model parameters in the particle channels which had been selected to give the best overall agreement between theoretical and experimental cross sections for reactions on stable target nuclei in the mass and energy ranges of importance for the stellar conditions of interest. The optical-model parameters used, and the stellar reaction rates obtained, are tabulated. Comparisons are made between these stellar rates and those from other statistical-model calculations in the literature.

The cross sections of the 72Ge( α , γ)76Se and 1°7Ag(ρ, γ)1°8Cd reactions were measured at energies relevant to p-process nucleosynthesis. The new data, together with cross section results from our previous ( α , γ) measure-ments on 65Cu and 118Sn and other ( α , γ) cross-section data reported in lit-erature are compared with statistical model calculations performed using the latest version (1.9) of the statistical model code TALYS. In addition, the effect on these calculations of different combinations of the optical model potentials (OMPs), nuclear level densities (NLDs) and γ-ray strength functions (γSFs) entering the calculations was investigated.

Absolute cross sections have been measured for (p, y) reactions on 63CU, 64Ni and 63CU over proton energy ranges of 1,05-3 '25, 1�00-3 �45 and 1�05-4� 70 MeV respectively, for (p, n) reactions over proton energy ranges from threshold to 3� 25,3' 80 and 4�86 MeV respectively, and for 63CU(p, p')63CU over a proton energy range of 1�05-4'00 MeV. All the data are compared with global statistical model calculations. The agreement, to within a factor of 2, between theory and experiment is regarded as satisfactory for a global code, but the 64Ni data are suggestive of a closed shell effect at Z = 28.

The evaluation are based on mainly on the calculations of the nuclear optical model potential and relevant parameters are collected and selected from References Input Parameter Library (RIPL) which is being developed under the international project coordinated by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The analyzing of a complete energy range has done starting from threshold energy for each reaction. The cross sections are reproduced in fine steps of incident neutron energy with 0.01MeV intervals with their corresponding errors. The recommended cross sections for available experimental data taken from EXFOR library have been calculated for all the considered neutron induced reactions for U-238 isotopes. The calculated results are analyzed and compared with the experimental data. The optimized optical potential model parameters give a very good agreement with the experimental data over the energy range 0.001-20MeV for neutron induced cross section reactions (n,f), (n,tot), (n,el), (n,inl), (n,2n), (n,3n), and (n,γ) for spherical U-238 target elements.

The 7Li + 11 Β reaction has been studied in the energy range from a little below to about three times the Coulomb barrier by measuring the cross section of the 7- ray transitions in the residual nuclei produced. Statistical compound nucleus calculations have been performed in order to interpret the experimental data as well as to extract cross sections of the individual exit channels. The statistical compound nucleus theory can reproduce rather well the absolute j - ray and the various reaction channel excitation functions.

Cross sections for the 70,76Ge(n,2n), 72,73Ge(n,p) and 72,74Ge(n, α) reactions have been measured at the 5.5 MV tandem T11/25 Accelerator Laboratory of NCSR Demokritos, using the activation technique. Neutron beams have been produced in the ~16-20 MeV energy region, by means of the 3H(d,n)4He reaction. The maximum flux has been determined to be of the order of 105 n/cm2 s, while the flux variation of the neutron beam was monitored by using a BF3 detector. The cross section has been deduced with respect to the 27Al(n, α)24Na and 93Nb(n,2n)92mNb reference reactions. The contaminations from reactions induced on neighboring Ge isotopes and leading to the same residual nucleus, have been taken into account. After the end of the irradiations, the activity induced by the neutron beams at the targets and reference foils, has been measured by HPGe detectors. Statistical model calculations using the EMPIRE code were performed on the data measured in this work as well as on data reported in literature.

Cross sections for production of individual y rays in the 54Cr(p, y)55Mn reaction have been measured over the proton energy range 1�0-3�8 MeV. Gamma-ray yields are observed to fall by factors of between 5 and 10 at the crossing of the neutron threshold for a proton bombarding energy of 2�2 MeV. Statistical model calculations with global parameter sets successfully account for the dramatic effect of neutron competition on the (p, y) cross section, and at the same time correctly predict the 54Cr(p,n)54Mn reaction cross section.

Reaction Cross Sections

About 35 nuclides which lie on the neutron deficient side of the isotopic chart cannot be created by the two basic nucleosynthetic processes, the sand the rprocess. Due to scarce experimental data and the vast complexity of the reaction network involved, cross sections and reactions are estimated theoretically, using the Hauser–Feshbach statistical model. In the present work, theoretical calculations of cross sections of radiative α-capture reactions on the neutron–deficient Erbium and Xenon isotopes are presented in an attempt to make predictions inside the astrophysically relevant energy window (Gamow). The particular reactions are predicted to be sensitive branchings in the γprocess path.The most recent versions of TALYS (v1.9) and Fresco codes were employed for all calculations, initially focusing on investigating the influence of the default eight (8) α–nucleus optical potential models of TALYS on reaction cross sections. The theoretical results of both codes are compared and for the reactions where experimental data exist in literature, the optical model parameters were adjusted appropriately to best describe the data and were subsequently used for estimating (α,γ) reaction cross sections. Predictions for the (α,n) reaction channels have also been calculated and studied.
