Measurements and model calculations of activation cross sections for (n,p) reactions on 152Sm isotope between 13.57 and 14.83Â MeV neutrons

► Measurements of neutron activation cross sections of 152Sm(n,p)152g,mPm reactions. ► Cross sections are measured at six neutron energies from 13.57 and 14.83 MeV. ► The cyclic activation technique was used as irradiation and counting method. ► Model calculations by STAPRE code, and comparison to the measured cross sections.
