Abstract
The In113(n,γ)In114m,114g, In113(n,n)In113m, In115(n,γ)In116m,116g, and In115(n,n)In115m activation cross sections have been measured at 11 neutron energies between approximately 0.36 and 1.02 MeV. The full neutron energy spread was, on the average, about 0.06 MeV for the irradiations. All cross sections were measured relative to the Au197(n,γ)Au198 activation cross section. Normalizations of the relative cross sections for formation of In114g(72 sec) and of In116g(14 sec) were obtained from the results of thermal-neutron irradiations by using the reported thermal-cross-section values. Efficiency calibration of a NaI(Tl) crystal made it possible to obtain the magnitudes of the cross section for the other four reactions. Comparisons of the experimental results with calculations based on the statistical theory of nuclear reactions have been made.
