Calculation of Neutron and Proton Induced Reaction Cross Sections on Scandium Isotope(45Sc)

Abstract

The objective of the work was to find the cross section values for the reactions 45 21Sc(n; 2n)44 21Sc, 45 21Sc(n; p)45 21Ca, 45 21Sc(p; n)45 22Ti and 45 21Sc(p; 2n)44 22Ti using a computational nuclear reaction code called COMPLET. The results were compared with the experimental data obtained from different literature s published in EXFOR data base. The calculated were done using COMPLET computer code, which is based on Geometry Dependent Hybrid(GDH) model. Various parameters were changed to see the effect on the excitation functions. The comparison gives the best fit parameters viz pld, exciton number etc. The results in this work agree will with experimental in most of the reactions.
