Abstract

Deuteron-induced cross-sections of the natNi(d,x)55–58,60Co, 57Ni, 52g,54Mn and 61Cu reactions were measured from the respective threshold energies to 24 MeV by using a stacked-foil activation technique combined with HPGe γ-ray spectrometry. The results were compared with the available experimental data and also with the evaluated data in the TENDL-2014 library. Present results show a reasonable agreement with the recently reported experimental data while a partial agreement is found with the evaluated data. The results are expected to further enrich the experimental database and to understand the discrepancies among the previous measurements. The natNi(d,x)61Cu cross-sections recommended by the IAEA overestimate recent experimental ones, and their upgrade has been proposed.
