Abstract

The photoproduction of the 93mMo nucleus on natural molybdenum was studied using the electron beam of the LUE-40 linac RDC “Accelerator” NSC KIPT. Measurements were performed using the activation method and off-line γ-ray spectrometric technique. For the natMo(γ,xn)93mMo reaction the experimental flux-averaged cross-sectionϭ(Eγmax)m at the bremsstrahlung end-point energy range of 38…93 MeV was first time determined. The theoretical values of the yields Ym,g(Eγmax) and flux-averaged cross-sections(Eγmax)m,g for the natMo(γ,xn)93m,gMo reactions were calculated using the cross-sections ϭ(Eγ) from the TALYS1.96 code for different gamma strength functions and level density models. The comparison showed strong discrepancies between the experimental values and the theoretical results of (Eγmax)m.
