Abstract
For validation and development of codes and for modeling isotope production in high power accelerators and APT Materials studies, we have produced experimental, calculated, and evaluated activation libraries for interaction of nucleons with nuclides covering about a third of all natural elements. For targets considered here, our compilation of experimental data is the most complete we are aware of, since it contains all data available on the Web, in journal papers, laboratory reports, theses, and books, as well as all data included in the large compilation by Sobolevsky with co-authors (NUCLEX) published recently by Springer-Verlag in 4 volumes. Our evaluated library was produced using all available experimental cross sections together with calculations by the CEM95, LAHET, and HMS-ALICE codes and with the European Activation File EAF-97 and LANL Update II of the ECNAF Neutron Activation Cross-Section Library.
