Original Abstract

The cross section of the 109 Ag(n,γ) 110m Ag reaction is measured with the aid of using the neutron activation approach and γ-ray spectroscopy. Neutrons were generated with the help of using the 7 Li(p,n) reaction. The neutron flux was measured using the 115 In(n,n') 115m In monitor reaction. The cross-section results were described along with the absolute errors, by uncertainty propagation, using the covariance technique. The corrections for γ-ray true coincidence summing, γ-ray self-attenuation were executed.
