Summary, etc. |
<p>In this paper, the measurement and covariance analysis of the cross section of <sup>100</sup>Mo (n, 2n) <sup>99</sup>Mo reaction, with the <sup>197</sup>Au (n, 2n)<sup>196 </sup>Au reaction being used as the monitor, at the incident neutron energy of 13.9 MeV is reported. The <sup>3</sup>H (d, n) <sup>4</sup>He nuclear reaction is used as the neutron source. The experiment was performed at the Purnima neutron facility, BARC. <br /> The method of activation with off-line -ray spectrometry is used. The covariance analysis of the <sup>100</sup>Mo (n, 2n) <sup>99</sup>Mo reaction is also performed, for the first time, using the extended unscented transformation (EUT) technique<sup>1</sup>, which is an extension of unscented transformation (UT) technique<sup>2</sup>, for the determination of partial uncertainties arising due to attributes in combination with the micro-correlation technique of Geraldo and Smith<sup>3</sup>. The present results obtained for <sup>100</sup>Mo (n, 2n) <sup>99</sup>Mo reaction cross section are found to be in good agreement with EXFOR data and the theoretically calculated value using the TALYS 1. 8 code. Comparisons with the data in the available basic evaluated nuclear data libraries, such as ENDF/B-VIII.0, JEFF-3.3, JENDL-4.0, ROSFOND-2010, CENDL-3.1 and TENDL 2017 are also presented and discussed.</p> |
