Abstract

Abstract: Alpha induced reactions on natural and enriched antimony targets were investigated via the activation technique in the energy range from 9.74 MeV to 15.48 MeV, close to the upper end of the Gamow window at a temperature of 3 GK relevant to the γ-process. The experiments were carried out at the Institute for Nuclear Research, the Hungarian Academy of Sciences (MTA Atomki). 121 Sb(α, γ) 125 I, 121 Sb(α, n) 124 I and 123 Sb(α, n) 126 I reactions were measured using a HPGe detector. In this work, the 121 Sb(α, n) 124 cross section results and the comparison with the theoretical predictions (obtained with standard settings of the statistical model codes NON-SMOKER and TALYS) were presented.
