Double Differential Alpha, Proton and Deuteron Emission Cross Section Calculations for the Structural Fusion Materials 46,48Ti

Double differential light charged particle emission cross section is a fundamental value to determine nuclear heating and material damages in structural fusion material development. In this study, double differential alpha, proton and deuteron emission cross sections for Ti-46 and Ti-48 target nuclei have been calculated by the TALYS 1.6 code at 15 MeV incident neutron energy. The light charged particles are emitted due to mainly three different processes-compound, direct and pre-equilibrium. The compound nucleus formation process dominates the emission of light charged particle up to 8 MeV emission energy. Pre-equilibrium and direct reaction contribution become dominant in higher particle emission energies. The calculated double differential cross sections have been compared with the available experimental data taken from the literature.
