Abstract
Neutron-capture cross sections in the energy range of 0.01–10 MeV for nuclei were calculated using the -ray strength and level density functions extracted from the Oslo-type experiments. The uncertainties in the cross-section values were determined using a Monte Carlo method. For the isotopes, the calculated cross sections are in a good agreement with the existing experimental data and for the nucleus, an experimental cross section is reported for the first time. The results are compared with the ENDF, EAF, and TENDL evaluations. Maxwellian-averaged cross sections were also calculated using the same input and LD functions.
