Calculation The Alpha Yields From (P, Α) Reactions For Ni And Zn Element Targets

Abstract

Alpha yields and stopping power from (p,α) reactions for eight medium target elements (for targets of Nickel Ni and Zinc Zn) in the energy range from threshold energy up to 49.85 MeV proton energies have been calculated. Complete energy range starting from threshold energy for each reaction have been analyzed statistically and the adopted cross sections were reproduced in fine steps of incident proton energy in 0.01 MeV intervals with the corresponding errors in order the explain a spectrum of cross sections. The stopping power according to Zeigler formula was used in order to obtain the cross sections and alpha yield for each reaction.
