Proton-induced cross-sections of nuclear reactions on lead up to 37Â MeV

Excitation function of proton induced nuclear reactions on lead for production of 206,205,204,203,202,201gBi, 203cum,202m,201cumPb and 202cum,201cum,200cum,199cumTl radionuclides were measured up to 36 MeV by using activation method, stacked foil irradiation technique and γ-ray spectrometry. The new experimental data were compared with the few earlier experimental results and with the predictions of the EMPIRE3.1, ALICE-IPPE (MENDL2p) and TALYS (TENDL-2012) theoretical reaction codes.
