The cross sections of the 75As(n, γ)76As reaction were measured in the neutron energy range from 0.50 to 1.50 MeV by using the activation technique, Neutrons were produced via the T(p,n)3He reaction and the cross sections of the 197Au(n, γ)198 Au reaction were used to determine the absolute neutron flux. Present results are compared with existing measurements and evaluations.
