Abstract: | The 100Mo(p, n)100Tc reaction cross section was determined from 2 to 11 MeV (c.m.), by counting the delayed γ-rays from the 100Tc decays (half-life = 15.8 s). These yields were measured with Ge(Li) and NaI(Tl) detectors and thick natural Mo targets. The use of this reaction as a normalizing reaction for cross-section measurements with a rapid target-transfer system is discussed. This technique was applied to the measurement of the astrophysically interesting 23Na(p, n)23Mg cross section (23Mg HALF-LIFE = 11.57s). The results agree well with an independent 23Na(p, n)23Mg cross-section measurement. |
