Abstract

The 171,173Yb(d,pγ) reactions have been measured to determine the efficacy of this reaction as a surrogate for neutron capture on radioactive nuclei. Preliminary results for the surrogate cross section ratios, with gating conditions that best mimic the spin distribution of neutron capture, reproduce the Wisshak et al., (n,γ) cross section ratios within 15%. © 2009 American Institute of Physics.
