Abstract
Abstract
The cross-sections for the 197Au(p,pxn)196-193Au and 197Au(p,xn)197,195,193Hg reactions within the proton energy range of 49.8–65.5 MeV were measured at the high-intensity proton linac facility (KOMAC) in Korea using the stacked-foil activation and off-line γ-ray spectrometric technique The proton beam intensity was determined based on the natCu(p,x)62Zn monitor reaction with the recommended cross-section accessed from the IAEA database library. The data gathered in the present work are compared with the available data from the literature, which agreed well with each other. In this study, the 197Au(p,p5n)193Au reaction cross-section was measured for the first time. The data from the present work and existing literature were compared with the TALYS-1.9-based data taken from the TENDL-2019 library, which generally agreed well.
