Influence of Reaction Channel on Isomer Ratio of 184m,gRe Isomeric Pair

Abstract

The influence of a reaction channel on the isomeric cross-section ratio (ICR) of the production of ^184m,gRe was investigated. The excitation functions for the ^184m,gRe isomeric pair produced through the ¹⁸⁴W(p,n), ¹⁸⁶W(p,3n), ¹⁸⁴W(d,2n), ¹⁸⁶W(d,4n), ¹⁸¹Ta(α,n) and ¹⁸⁵Re(γ,n) reactions were calculated by different models of the TALYS 1.9 and EMPIRE 3.2 codes. The ICR calculations for the above-mentioned isomeric pair through the various reaction channels (proton, deuteron, alpha and gamma induced reactions) was determined for incident energy ranges from the threshold up to 50 MeV. The comparison of theoretical calculations and available experimental data was done.
