Twenty-three experimental datasets are available in
the literature [36, 54, 81, 166, 178-196]. Data are shown in Fig. of "All data". Seven datasets were rejected. The reason of de-selection is indicated under the
reference item. The remaining datasets are shown in Fig. "Selected" in comparison with TENDL calculations.
The selected data and their experimental uncertainties together with the Padé
fit (L=13, N=252, c2=1.34) and the estimated uncertainty of the fit in
percentages, including 4% systematic uncertainty are shown in Fig. "Recommended"
Yields were
calculated from the recommended cross sections.
