Description

The cross-section ratios for the 90Zr(n, 2n)89g+mZr and 93Nb(n, 2n)92mNb reactions as well as for the 58Ni(n, p)58g+mCo and 58Ni(n, 2n)57Ni reactions have been measured by the activation method for the purpose of neutron spectrometry around 14 MeV in a neutron tube having a cylindrical acceleration structure (KORONA). The results are compared with the theoretically calculated values. The superiority of the ''Zr/Nb-ratio'' method over the ''Ni-ratio'' method is discussed. (orig.)
