Abstract
The measurement of the 59Co(n,2n)58Co reaction cross section with the neutron energy of 14.8 MeV has been performed by the activation method and relative measurement principle. The 300 kV Cockcroft Walton Accelerator of China Institute of Atomic Energy was used to produce quasi monoenergetic neutron beams by the T(D, n)4He reaction. Two thin 27Al and 93Nb foils were attached to the 59Co target and performed as monitors. After the irradiation, the HPGe detector and the GammaVision software were used to measure the activity of the irradiated samples and record the counts of γ-rays, respectively. Finally, some relevant physical quantities were corrected after comparing the results with experimental data in the EXFOR database and evaluated data in the ENDF database.
