Abstract

Accurate simulation of radiative capture reactions (RCRs) requires precise modeling of [Formula: see text]-ray strength functions (GSF). Various GSF models exist but need normalization based on experimental total radiative width (TRW) data. This study found that current normalization methods fail for neutron-induced RCRs in [Formula: see text]U and [Formula: see text]Th nuclei. In this regard, re-normalization values are proposed in order to improve model consistency at low energies. The standard Lorentzian (SLO) model fits experimental data best with minimal normalization.
