Bibliography of experimental data
A total of five publications containing cross-section data for the natTl(p,x)203Pb reaction were found: Sakai et al. (1965), Lagunas-Solar et al. (1978), Qaim et al. (1979), Al Saleh et al. (2007), Tárkányi et al. (2013). Additional data obtained by normalization of results on 105Tl published in Hermanne et al. (1991). They are represented in Fig. All data. The clearly outlying data of Sakai et al. (1965) were removed and the values of Lagunas-Solar et al. (1978), systematically higher than all other experimental data and the TENDL calculations, were normalized by a factor 0.75 and selected as shown in Fig. Selected in comparison with the TENDL-2019 and TENDL-2021 predictions. The Padé functions with 19 parameters were fitted to 191 selected data points with a χ2 = 2.48 and covering the energy range up to 60 MeV as shown in Fig. Recommended. The uncertainties (including 4% systematic uncertainty) show two local maxima, respectively 90 and 25 % in the threshold regions of the 2 involved reactions. Above 22 MeV the uncertainty remains between 10 and 20% up to the highest energy.
