The prediction of nuclear cross-section data is crucial, especially in the absence of experimental data or in the difficulty of these experimental data. Nickel (Ni) is an important material in fusion and fission reactor technolo-gies, the production of radionuclides in nuclear medicine, and many other fields. In this study, the excitation func-tions for 60,62Ni(α,n), 60,61Ni(α,2n), 58,64Ni(α,p), and natNi(α,x) reactions have been investigated by using pre-equilibrium reaction models. The calculations of the exci-tation functions for the reactions are used with the geom-etry-dependent hybrid model in ALICE/ASH code and the two-component exciton model in TALYS 1.8 code. The obtained results are compared to each other, and the experimental data are taken from the EXFOR database.
