| Abstract: | The excitation
functions of (n, 2n) and (n, α)
reactions for the production of long-lived radio nuclides 26Al and 24Na
from 27Al have been calculated for 1-20 MeV neutrons. The excitation
functions of these reactions are calculated using the codes ALICE-91,
EMPIRE-2.19 and TALYS-1.0. The codes account for the major nuclear reaction
mechanisms, including direct, pre-equilibrium and compound nuclear ones. The
excitation functions of these isotopes have been compared graphically with the
evaluated nuclear data file and available experimental data. The results are
more or less agreeing
up to which energy the experimental data are available whereas ALICE code
largely under predicts the data in the energy range 1-20 MeV.
