General Comments:

Assignment: 230Th(10B,6n), 230Th(11B,7N) excit (1967Ku17); 237Np(α,7N) chem, Eα=70.0-73.5 MeV (1990Ha02).

233U(6Li,5n), E=51 MeV; mass separated sources. Measured α particles, x rays.Production of 234Am was confirmed by observation of Pu ka1. Detectors: photodiode for α particles; Germanium detector for x rays (2004Sa05, 2002As08). Other: 2003Na10.

Q-value: Note: Current evaluation has used the following Q record -2190 SY6710 SY2810 SY6700 syst 2003Au03
