In the context of improvement of nuclear data bases for future nuclear reactor researches, we study (n,xn) reactions experimentally with the help of the (n,xn γ) technique. The experiments are performed at the GELINA facility which delivers a pulsed, white neutron beam. Several measurement campaigns have been performed on 235U, 232Th, 182,183,184,186W and 238U isotopes. A compilation of all these experimental cross sections (mostly still preliminary) compared to theoretical predictions will be discussed.
