Abstract
The cross sections for the reactions Am-241(n, 2n)Am-240 and Am-241(n, 3n)A m-239 are measured for several neutron-energy values in the range 13.42-14. 86 MeV. An upper limit on the cross section for the reaction Am-241(n, alph a)Np-238 is also obtained. (C) 2000 MAIK "Nauka/Interperiodica".
