Cross section measurements for neutron-induced reactions in Ti, Fe and Ni at several neutron energies ranging from 70.7 to 151.6 MeV

Cross sections for neutron-induced reactions producing relatively short-lived radionuclides were measured in natural targets of Ti, Fe and Ni using quasi-monoenergetic neutron beams at several different neutron energies between 70.7 and 151.6 MeV. Comparisons of these new measurements were made with energy integrated cross section measurements and reported data measured at low neutron energies as well as with MC-ALICE calculations. These cross section measurements are part of a systematic study to measure relevant cross sections needed to better understand cosmic ray interactions with extraterrestrial materials.
