Excitation functions of the Cr-nat(p,x)Ti-44, Fe-56(p,x)Ti-44, natNi(p,x)Ti-44 and Nb-93(p,x)Ti-44 reactions at energies up to 2.6 GeV
Abstract
The paper presents the measured cumulative yields of Ti-44 for Cr-nat, Fe-56, Ni-nat and Nb-93 samples irradiated by protons at the energy range 0.04-2.6 GeV. The obtained excitation functions are compared with calculations of the well-known codes: ISABEL, Bertini, INCL4.2+ABLA, INCL4.5+ABLA07, PHITS, CASCADE07 and CEM03.02. The predictive power of these codes regarding the studied nuclides is analyzed.
