Ta(n,) cross-section measurement and the astrophysical origin of Ta isotope

R. Garg, S. Dellmann, C. Lederer-Woods +11

Tantalum-180m is nature's rarest (quasi) stable isotope and its astrophysical origin is an open question. A possible production site of this isotope is the slow neutron capture pro…
