Abstract

It is important to examine the effects of the nuclear reaction, which is used as a building material in nuclear reactors. Nuclear reactions occur as a result of the interaction between incident particles with the target nuclei. The charged particle-induced reactions have prime importance in understanding the reaction mechanism which can be applicable to understand the particles resulting from the reaction. It is useful to develop shielding the particle accelerators and fusion reactors. The present study contributes to providing the theoretical prediction of excitation functions for 112Cd (d, 3n)111In, 141Pr (d, 3n)140Nd, 167Er (d, 3n)166Tm, 197Au (d, 3n)196Hg and 209Bi (d, 3n)208Po reactions using theoretical model codes such as TALYS-1.95, EMPIRE-3.2.3, and ALICE-2014 within the incident deuteron energy range of threshold energy to 50 MeV. Also, newly developed (d, 3n) cross-section formula (Kavun, 2020) calculations have been performed for these reactions at 20 MeV of deuteron energy. Lastly, all calculated results have been compared with one another and with the previously published experimental data of the EXFOR database.
