TL;DR: In this article, the authors used optical model calculations for the formation of the compound nucleus with the measured exit channel probability for {gamma}-ray emission to determine the low-energy (n,gamma}) cross section for the unstable nucleus {sup 153}Gd by bombarding a stable {sup 154Gd* target with protons from the 88-Inch Cyclotron at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory to create the desired {sup154Gd*) compound nucleus.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors indirectly determined the 237Np(n,f) cross section over an equivalent neutron energy range from 10 to 20 MeV using the surrogate reaction 238U(3He,tf) using the Silicon Telescope Array for Reaction Studies (STARS) consisted of two 140 μm and one 1000 μm S2 type silicon detectors.

TL;DR: In this article, the Surrogate Ratio method was used to deduce the destruction cross section of {sup 237}U via the (n, {gamma}) and (n 2 n) reactions over an equivalent neutron energy range of 0 to 20 MeV.
