Only two works were found in the literature which used natural Rb target and one measurement used enriched target. Two papers were selected for further evaluation. The list of related references given below is accompanied with additional information. We mention availability of data in the computerised database EXFOR (if available, unique EXFOR reference number is given). Further, we indicate a reason why a data set was excluded (reference denoted by an asterisk *).

Excluded: unusual shape of excitation function.

All the data are collected in Fig. 5.2.10a. Two works were used for further evaluation.

Cross sections were calculated by the nuclear reaction model codes ALICE IPPE and SPEC. These results are compared with the selected experimental data in Fig. 5.2.10b. It is seen that the ALICE calculation underestimates while SPEC model calculation overpredicts the experimental cross sections. Because of scarcity of data no recommendation is given.
