Description

This work presents the evaluated results of cross-sections for natural chromium (natCr) with several nuclear reactions of natCr(d, x)52g, m+Mn, natCr(d, x)54Mn, natCr(d, x)51Cr, and natCr(d, x)48V using the statistical nuclear model EMPIRE 3.2.2 code with different level density models, for some radionuclides used in positron emission tomography. We compared the results to data sets found in literature, and data chosen from various sets of the electronic TENDL library. (author)
