Investigating High-Energy Proton-Induced Reactions on Spherical Nuclei: Implications for the Pre-Equilibrium Exciton Model
Morgan B. Fox, Andrew S. Voyles, Jonathan T. Morrell +10
A number of accelerator-based isotope production facilities utilize 100- to 200-MeV proton beams due to the high production rates enabled by high-intensity beam capabilities and th…
Measurement of La(p,x) Cross Sections from 35-60 MeV by Stacked-Target Activation
Jonathan T. Morrell, Andrew S. Voyles, M. S. Basunia +3
A stacked-target of natural lanthanum foils (99.9119% La) was irradiated using a 60 MeV proton beam at the LBNL 88-Inch Cyclotron. La(p,x) cross sections are report…
Design, construction, and characterization of a compact DD neutron generator designed for 40Ar/39Ar geochronology
Mauricio Ayllon, Parker A. Adams, Joseph D. Bauer +15
A next-generation, high-flux DD neutron generator has been designed, commissioned, and characterized, and is now operational in a new facility at the University of California Berke…
Excitation functions for (p,x) reactions of niobium in the energy range of E = 40-90 MeV
Andrew S. Voyles, Lee A. Bernstein, Eva R. Birnbaum +5
A stack of thin Nb foils was irradiated with the 100 MeV proton beam at Los Alamos National Laboratory's Isotope Production Facility, to investigate the Nb(p,4n)Mo nu…
