Abstract
A study of the reaction of inelastic scattering of 14.1 MeV neutrons by 23 Na nuclei was carried out at the TANGRA facility using the tagged neutron method. In this work, the energies of visible g-transitions are determined, the yields of g -quanta are obtained, the angular distributions of g -quanta for 23 Na are measured. The results obtained are in good agreement with the data of other published experimental works.
Highlights
Investigations of reactions of inelastic scattering of fast neutrons by atomic nuclei are an important source of information on the process of interaction of neutrons with nuclei, including the properties of excited states of target nuclei [1]
The measurement of the characteristics of γ -radiation generated as a result of scattering of fast neutrons by 23 Na, in particular, the measurement of the angular distribution of γ -quanta using detectors based on NaI (Tl) was carried out in [2]
The spectra of γ -quanta formed in the interaction of 14.1 MeV neutrons with 23 Na nuclei are shown in Figure 3 with the indication of the energy values of the most intense identified by us γ -transitions
Summary
Investigations of reactions of inelastic scattering of fast neutrons by atomic nuclei are an important source of information on the process of interaction of neutrons with nuclei, including the properties of excited states of target nuclei [1]. The present work is devoted to the study of the characteristics of γ -radiation generated in reactions of inelastic scattering with energy 14 MeV neutrons by Na nuclei.
