Abstract

The development of advanced nuclear systems as generation IV reactors, accelerator driven systems and fusion reactors needs new reliable high quality nuclear data. The relativistic proton and lightion accelerator Nuclotron at JINR Dubna was used to study cross-sections of deuteron reactions on copper. The obtained excitation functions of different radionuclide productions by relativistic deuterons on copper were used for determination of beam integral during last experiment with E+T set-up using copper foil. The discrepancy which we had between beam integral values obtained by means of two aluminium foil monitors was resolved by this new analysis. The accurate cross-sections of neutron reactions in wide energy range and relativistic light ion reactions are the most important part of the experimental studies. We used two quasi mono-energetic neutron sources for studies of neutron reaction cross-sections on broad set of materials. The first facility isthe neutron source based on the cyclotron at the Nuclear Physics Institute of ASCR, Řež. It provides neutron beams in the energy range from 14 MeV up to 35 MeV. The second neutron source is built around the cyclotron at TSL Uppsala. This facility providesneutron beam in the energy range from 14 MeV up to 200 MeV. Both facilities are open for European users within the framework of project CHANDA.
