Naik, P. Prajapati, S. Surayanarayana, K. Jagadeesan, S. Thakare, D. Raj, V. Mulik, B. Sivashankar, B. Nayak, S. Sharma, S. Mukherjee, Sarbjit Singh, A. Goswami, S. Ganesan, V. Manchanda] Abstract.: The 232Th(n,$ \gamma$) reaction cross-section at average neutron energies of 3.7±0.3 MeV and 9.85±0.38 MeV from the 7Li(p, n) reaction has been determined for the first time using activation and off-line $ \gamma$ -ray spectrometric technique. The 232Th(n, 2n) reaction cross-section at the average neutron energy of 9.85±0.38 MeV has been also determined using the same technique. The experimentally determined 232Th(n,$ \gamma$) and 232Th(n, 2n) reaction cross-sections were compared with the evaluated data of ENDF/B-VII, JENDL-4.0 and JEFF-3.1 and were found to be in good agreement. The present data along with literature data in a wide range of neutron energies were interpreted in terms of competition between different reaction channels including fission. The 232Th(n,$ \gamma$) and 232Th(n, 2n) reaction cross-sections were also calculated theoretically using the TALYS 1.2 computer code and were found to be slightly higher than the experimental data.
