Measurements of excitation functions and photoneutron cross sections of 96,98,99,104 Ru and 100 Mo

Photoneutron cross sections were extracted for isotopes of ruthenium and molybdenum on natural abundance targets via a reduced chi-squared analysis on excitation functions, or activation yields, as function of electron beam energy. Bremsstrahlung photons were produced via an electron linear accelerator and a tungsten radiator at the Idaho Accelerator Center. A total of 16 irradiations were performed with electron beam energies ranging from approximately 8 MeV to 23 MeV. Induced radioactivity was measured using a high purity germanium detector. The cross sections were extracted assuming a three parameter Lorentzian fit with a smooth truncated rise at reaction threshold.
