Activation cross sections of deuteron-induced reactions on niobium up to 24 MeV

We measured cross sections of deuteron-induced reactions on a niobium target up to 24 MeV using the stacked-foil activation technique and off-line γ-ray spectrometry. The production cross sections of ^93mMo, ^92mNb and ⁸⁹Zr were determined. The results were compared with the experimental data studied earlier and the predictions of theoretical calculations.
