Neutron cross-section evaluations for Ge-70,72,73,74,76
- 1. Nuclear Data Section, IAEA
Description
Entirely new evaluations have been performed for neutrons on all isotopes of Ge, from a thermal energy up to
20 MeV, with a focus on photon production. The resonance parameters were considerably improved compared to earlier
evaluations. The fast-neutron region has been evaluated using the EMPIRE-2.19 code. The results were validated against
photon data on Fe and Nb. Isotopic evaluations for Ge were summed up and compared with available measurements on natural
Ge. Various quantities related to photon production, showing strong dependence on neutron incident energy, are discussed
