Abstract
The cross section of the 71Ga(n,γ)72Ga reaction at 0.0334 eV was measured for the first time using monochromatic neutrons from powder diffractometer at TRIGA Mark II nuclear reactor. The 197Au(n,γ)198Au reaction was used to monitor the neutron beam intensity. The HPGe γ-ray spectrometry was used to determine the radioactivity of the product radionuclides. The obtained cross section value amounted 3.42 ± 0.27 b is about 95% consistent with JENDL-4, but about 17% and 14% lower than that of the ENDF/B-VII and TENDL-2012 data libraries, respectively. The measured value at 0.0334 eV and the previous measured value at 0.0536 eV would be useful to confirm the reliability of the data evaluated by 1/v relation in the above libraries.
