Evaluation of Activation Cross Sections for （n,2n） and （n,γ） Reactions on 63,65,NatCu

摘要

正 Copper is a very important structure material in nuclear fusion engineering. The neutron activation cross section are very useful in fusion research and other applications such as radiation safety, environmental, material damage and neutron dosimetry. More efforts are required to identify and resolve the differences and discrepancies in the existing activation cross sections from different laboratories. The natural copper consists of two stable isotopes, i.e. 63Cu, 65Cu. The reaction Q-Values and abundances are listed in Table 1.
