Abstract
Reaction cross sections were measured from 10.4 up to 17.5 MeV for the formation of Pu-236 and Pu-237 in the proton bombardment of Np-237. T hick-target yield curves, based on the measured cross sections, were d erived. The results are discussed and compared with literature data on other reactions leading to the formation of Pu-236 and Pu-237 .
