Activation cross-sections for 14·7 MeV neutrons on chromium

Using the activation method, the cross-sections for the following reactions were measured: 50Cr(n,2n)49Cr, 24 ± 5 mbarn; 52Cr(n,p)52V, 94 ± 10 mbarn; 53Cr(n,p)53V, 40 ± 7 mbarn; 54Cr(n,p)54V, 15 ± 4 mbarn: 54Cr(n,α)51Ti, 7 ± 4 mbarn. The neutron energy was 14.7 ± 0·3 MeV.
