摘要
We present experimental methods for the measurement of the B-10(n,alpha) Li-7 and the Li-6(n,t) He-4 reactions for neutron energies up to 3 MeV, and preliminary data for the B-10(n,alpha(0))/B-10(n,alpha(1 gamma)) branching ratios. The experimental facilities were installed at GELINA and the Van de Graaff generator of the Institute for Reference Materials and Measurement of the European Commission. Our results show the need to investigate the MeV region for these reactions, since the ENDF/B-VII.1 evaluation agrees with our data up to 1.3 MeV and overestimates above this limit.
