Abstract

The variation of nuclear reaction cross-sections with the variation in projectile energies is called excitation functions has been a subject of great interest since last few decades. They beautifully display the pre-equilibrium as well as equilibrium emission of particles. The phenomenological pre-equilibrium models introduced to describe the equilibration process of an excited nucleus and the subsequent emission of particles have become a promising tool for the description, analysis and interpretation of nuclear reactions of energy greater than a few tens of MeV. In the study that is presented here proton induced reactions on the target element yttrium isotope were studied upto 80 MeV. The excitation functions for the five reactions of the type 89Y (p, xn); x=2-4, 89Y (p, xn); x=1, 2 were studied using the computer code COMPLET. The aim of this study is to analyze the nuclear reaction of yttrium isotope induced by proton particle using computer code COMPLET and EXFOR database. The corresponding experimental data were taken from EXFOR library. The calculated theoretical values were compared with the experimental results. It is observed that the calculated theoretical values show a systematic underestimated result for initial exciton configuration no=1(1p+0h) and level density parameter ACN/10 especially in multiparticle emissions. Hence, no=1(1p+0h) was less convenient choice for higher energies but low energy requirement makes this calculation better choice.
