Isomeric Ratios In Neutron Capture Reaction, Induced By Thermal, Resonant And Mixed Thermal-Resonant Neutrons On Cd-114 And 116cd Nuclei

The isomeric ratios in neutron capture reactions, induced by thermal, resonant and mixed thermal-resonant neutrons on 114Cd and 116Cd nuclei have been measured by the activation method using off-line gamma spectroscopy. The data analysis and necessary corrections as the self-absorption and summing cascade effects were made in gamma rays radioactivity measurements to improve the precision of the isomeric ratio determination. The results were discussed and compared with those in the existing literature, which can contribute as additional data to the nuclear data banks and used for theoretical calculations in nuclear reaction models as well as for nuclear applications.
