摘要

Abstract

The thermal neutron capture gamma ray facility at Pakistan Research Reactor (PARR-1) is being used for the re-estimation of various properties like capture cross-sections, resonance integral, absolute gamma intensities, etc. of different isotopes. The data for gamma ray transitions from the capture of thermal neutrons by ,55,Mn are not in good agreement specifically below 2 MeV. So there is a need to re-estimate its intensities with better accuracy. Analytical grade MnCl,2, powder and high purity Mn metal pieces were used in this study. Standard ,152,Eu and ,60,Co radioactive sources as well as thermal neutron capture γ-rays in chlorine were chosen for efficiency calibration. The ,k,0, standardization technique was applied for these measurements to eliminate systematic errors in efficiencies. Chlorine also acted as a comparator in ,k,0,- factor calculations. The results have been tabulated for the main gamma rays from,56,Mn in the low as well as in the medium energy regions. The absolute intensities are in good agreement with most of the reported values.
