Abstract
Np-237 samples were irradiated in spallation neutrons produced in ADS setup QUINTA. Three experiments were carried out. The accelerated beam consisted of deuteron ions of energy 2, 4 and 8 GeV respectively. The method was based on gamma-ray spectrometry measurement. During analysis of the spectra several fission products and one actinide were identified. Fission product activities gave the number of fissions. The actinide (Np-238), a result of neutron capture by Np-237 gave the number of captures.
