Abstract

The (gamma,n) reaction cross sections in different zirconium isotopes have been calculated at the photon energy range of 7-70 MeV using TALYS-1.2 computer program. The obtained cross sections have been compared with the experimental Nuclear Reaction Data (EXFOR-Experimental Nuclear Reaction Data) obtained from the library and data curves of JENDL/PD and TENDL-2011 (TALYS-based Evaluated Nuclear Data Library) (TALYS 1.2). It was seen that the agreement between all results are good. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
