Examination of the nuclear reaction cross sections of the Fe and Ni isotopes using the models

In this study, nuclear reaction cross section calculations for 54,56,57,58Fe (n,p), 54,56,57,58Fe (n,2n) and 70,72,74,76Ni (n,p), 70,72,74,76Ni (n,2n) reactions have been calculated at the neutron energies up to 20 MeV using TALYS 1.6, EMPIRE 3.2, ALICE/ASH (GDH) computer program codes. Results from these codes have been compared with evaluated nuclear data from the ENDF/B. The cross section calculations of (n,p) and (n,2n) reactions for each nuclei, have also been investigated at 14-15 MeV using some semi empirical formulae taken from literature. All results have been compared with experimental results taken from EXFOR (Experimental Nuclear Reaction Data.)
