Abstract

The C13(α,n)O16 total cross section has been determined for the incident α-particle energy range 1.95 to 5.57 MeV using a 4π neutron detector. The total cross section of the inverse reaction O16(n,α)C13 has been calculated by applying the reciprocity theorem. The total level widths for 16 levels, and the partial widths Γα and Γn along with the reduced widths γα2 and γn2 for the levels corresponding to the 2.68, 2.81, 3.72, and 4.62-MeV resonances, have been determined.
