Calculation the Cross Sections and Neutron Yield for 50Cr(p,n)500Mn Reaction

Abstract

In this study intermediate elements 50Cr , 50Mn for 50Cr(p,n)50Mn reaction as well as proton energy from (3.4576) MeV to (148.0) MeV with threshold energy (8.8179)MeV are used according to the available data of reaction cross sections. The more recent cross sections data of 50Cr(p,n)50Mn reaction is reproduced in fine steps and by using (Matlab-7.6 )program and get the equation from 10-degree for plotted .By using inverse reaction principle also get mathematical equation to calculate the cross section of 50Mn(n,p)50Cr . We deduced that the high probability to produced 50Cr by bombard 50Mn by neutron. These cross sections together with the stopping powers calculated from the Zeigler formula have been used to calculate the n-yield for reaction.
