Bibliography of experimental
data
12 works with experimental cross-section data were identified in the
literature for incident particle energies up to 35 MeV
and are represented with uncertainties in Fig. All data. Only 5 datasets in 4
publications were obtained on enriched 124Te targets. The
publication by Kondo et al. (1977) contained two sets, labelled
(a) and (b), while two sets of data are available in Acerbi
(1975), obtained on enriched 124Te (enr)
and on natTe (nat).
The cross sections obtained from experiments on natTe
targets up to 18.15 MeV, the threshold of the 125Te(p,3n)
reaction, were normalized and corrected for the contribution of the 123Te(p,n) reaction, relevant between 11 and 17 MeV (by using the recommended data of 2004 update of the
gamma-emitter section of the IAEA on-line charged
particle database [2]). In order to obtain a more coherent set, it was decided to
rely essentially on the values of cross sections measured on enriched targets
of Acerbi et al. (1975)(enr)
and the studies on natural targets by Kandil et al.
(2013) and Kiraly et al. (2006). For enriched targets
the two sets of Kondo et al. (1977) were energy shifted and multiplied by a factor
of 1.4, while the very high values of Van den Bosch et al. (1977) were
multiplied by 0.7. For natural targets the values of El-Azony
et al. (2008), Scholten et al. (1989) and Zweit et al. (1991) (all low data group) were multiplied by
1.4. The results of Acerbi et al. (1975)(nat), Kondo et al. (1977)(b)(enr)
and Scholten et al. (1995)(enr)
were not considered for further analysis as the presented results are either too
high or too low or show discrepant data points. The remaining 11 datasets were
considered as input for a least-square Pade fit. The Pade functions with 8 parameters were fitted to 87 selected
data points with a χ2=1.29 and covering the energy range up to
28 MeV as shown in Fig. Recommended. The uncertainties
(including a 4% systematic uncertainty), are above 50% near the reaction
threshold, decrease steadily to below 10% from 13 MeV
to 25 MeV and increase again to 40% for higher
energies.
