Description

Activation cross-sections have been measured for some isotopes of the elements in Tl2Ca1Ba2Cu2O8 high Tc superconducting oxide. In addition, cross-sections for producing long-lived isotopes in Cu and Ag were also determined. Results for the following reactions are given at En = 14.5 MeV: 63Cu(n,α)60Co, 90Zr(n,2n)89Zr, 107Ag(n,2n)106mAg, 109Ag(n,2n)108Ag, 134Ba(n,2n)133Ba, 134Ba(n,p)134Cs, 136Ba(n,p)136Ca, 137Ba(n,p)137Cs and 203Tl(n,2n)202Tl. The results are compared with the corresponding data published in the literature and given by systematics. (author)
