Abstract
Using enriched titanium samples, the activation (n, p) and (n, pn; n, np; n,d) cross sections have been measured for the five isotopes of titanium in the neutron energy range from 13.6 to 19.5 MeV. The results were compared with calculations based primarily upon Bodansky's theory (1962), where the first proton emission cross section was taken to be the sum of (n, p) and (n, pn). The (n, pn) cross section was separated from the experimental (n, pn; n, np; n, d) cross section by a multiple-emission calculation. Using the nuclear temperature derived from the experimental data, good agreement was achieved between experiment and theory. It was found that the parameters of Bodansky's equation for the titanium isotopes could be adopted directly from the mass parabolas (Dewdney 1963). It was also found that the (n, p) cross sections were not influenced appreciably by the neutron closed shell.
