(~3He,xn) Reaction Cross-Section Calculations for the Structural Fusion Material ~(181)Ta in the Energy Range of 14-75 MeV

摘要

The theoretical neutron-production cross-sections produced by ~(181)Ta(~3He,xn)~(184-x)Re reactions (x = 1-7) for structural fusion material ~(181)Ta in ~3He-induced reactions have been performed in the incident ~3He energy range of 14-75 MeV. Reaction cross-sections, based on theoretical pre-equilibrium nuclear reaction models, have been calculated theoretically by means of the TALYS 1.6 two component exciton, EMPIRE 3.1 exciton, ALICE/ASH geometry dependent hybrid (GDH) and ALICE/ASH hybrid models. The neutron-production cross-section results of the models have been compared with the each other and against the experimental nuclear reaction data (EXFOR). Except the ~(181)Ta(~3He,2n)~(182)Re and ~(181)Ta(~3He,7n)~(177)Re reactions, the ALICE/ASH cross-section calculations show generally agreement with the experimental values for all reactions used in this study. The ALICE/ASH-GDH model can be suggested, if the experimental data are unavailable or are improbably to be produced because of the experimental troubles.
