Description

Maxwellian averaged capture cross sections of 140,142Ce, 139La and 181Ta are measured at kT = 24 keV using the activation technigue. The neutrons are generated via the 7Li(p,n)7Be reaction at a 2.5MV pulsed Van de Graaff accelerator. The neutron spectrum of the 7Li(p,n)7Be reaction just above the reaction threshold is measured by means of a 6Li-glass detector. The activities after irradiation are measured using a HPGe detector. The results are compared with data of other authors
