Abstract
The yield of R105u and R105h produced through proton induced fission of U238 are measured using stacked foil activation technique. The results are compared with theoretical calculations using TALYS 1.95. As the R105h shows a higher cross-section for neutron absorption in the thermal region, production of this isotope will act as a reactor poison. Hence the reactivity equivalent of R105h is also calculated and is found to be −0.84%.
