Fast-Neutron Excitation of Isomeric States in Indium

Donald L. Smith, James W. Meadows

Open publisher page 32 citations

Abstract

Activation techniques were employed in measurements of cross sections for excitation of the 99.4-min isomeric state at 0.392 MeV in 113In and the 4.5-h isomeric state at 0.335 MeV in 115In from near threshold to ∼10 MeV. Effective cross sections for these processes in standard fission neutron spectra were also computed from these data.
