Abstract
We measured the isomeric yield ratios for the photonuclear reactions of 93Nb(γ,4n)89m,gNb and natMo(γ,xnp)95m,gNb by using the activation method. The high-purity 93Nb and natMo metallic foils in disc shape were irradiated with uncollimated bremsstrahlung beams of 50-, 60-, and 70-MeV generated from an electron linear accelerator in Pohang Accelerator Laboratory. The induced activities in the irradiated foils were measured by the high-resolution γ-ray spectrometry with a calibrated high-purity Germanium (HPGe) detector coupled to a PC-based 4 K multichannel analyzer. The reaction 93Nb(γ,4n)89m,gNb was studied for the first time which has no comparable literature data. The result of 95m,gNb isomeric pair was measured based on (γ,p), (γ,np), and (γ,2np) reactions which is the first measurement at the intermediate energy region of 50–70-MeV with a natMo target.
