In general, the deep understanding of proton-induced reactions is a crucial step for the further development of nuclear reactions theory. However there has been an interesting focus in nuclear physics. Some applications require accurate nuclear reaction data of common cross sections and especially need the data of neutron and proton induced energy-angle correlated spectra of secondary particles, as well as double differential cross sections. Double-differential nucleon-production cross-sections of ⁵⁶Fe, ⁶³Cu and ⁹⁰Zr targets, bombarded with protons are calculated based on the nuclear theoretical models. Monte Carlo calculations with the TALYS 1.6 nuclear reaction simulation code are performed. Theoretical calculated results are compared with existing experimental data in EXFOR library.
Knowledge of the cross sections of reactions of charged particles with target material is needed to understand well the mechanisms of nuclear reactions. One of the main application fields of nuclear technology and nuclear reactions is medicine. Radioisotopes are used in medicine and production of these radioisotopes is important. In the production processes, the cross sections must be known. For this purpose, in this study, theoretical cross sections of production of In isotopes by alpha irradiation have been calculated using Talys 1.6 nuclear reaction simulation code. The obtained results are compared with the existing experimental data.
