Abstract

The interaction of a deuteron beam with lithium is characterized by a high yield of neutrons, high energy of neutrons and a large variety of reactions. The reliable data of the reactions cross-sections are important for many applications, including radiation testing of advanced materials and equipment. The experimental data on the cross-sections differ greatly from one author to another; for a number of reactions there is no data on the cross-section in the databases. Measurements of the reactions cross-sections were carried out at the accelerator-based neutron source VITA at Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics (Novosibirsk, Russia) using an α-spectrometer. The 6Li(d,α)4He, 6Li(d,p)7Li, 6Li(d,p)7Li*, 7Li(d,α)5He, and 7Li(d,nα)4He reactions cross-sections at deuteron energies from 0.3 MeV to 2.2 MeV have been measured. The obtained data are presented tabular form.
