Abstract

The inelastic neutron acceleration (INNA) cross section on the long-lived isomer state of ^177mLu has been measured from a new isomeric target using a direct method. The detection of high energy neutrons has been performed using a specially designed setup and a cold neutron beam at the ORPHEE reactor facility in Saclay.
