Non-destructive and radiochemical determination of the neutron-induced production cross section of I-129 from Te and other neutron-induced cross sections on Te at 14.7 MeV

C. Schnabel
Cross sections of twelve neutron-induced reactions on tellurium at 14.7 MeV have been determined. Among them are the (n,2n) cross sections for the production of both 129Te isomers which were determined using gamma ray spectrometry. These reactions dominate the cosmogenic production of 129I in meteoroids and are therefore of special importance. In addition, the neutron-induced cross section on Te at 14.7 MeV for the production of 129I was also determined directly by accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) after radiochemical separation. The results for the production cross section of 129I determined by the two methods agree within 5%.
