Abstract

Abstract We have proposed the empirical rule useful to estimate the fission averaged cross sections of the (n, p) and (n, α) reactions. The feasibility of this rule is further approved by the fact that the newly measured values of the (n, p) reaction cross sections on 43Ca, 96Mo, 132Ba and 140Ce, and of the (n, α) reaction cross sections on 45Sc, 50Ti and 45Fe coincide with values predicted by this rule. The hitherto known values of these cross sections were erroneous and then deviated from this rule.
