摘要

This work focuses to develop semi-empirical formulae for calculating (nt) nuclear reaction induced by fast neutron at energy of 14-15 MeV. The emission of triton is a weak nuclear reaction, it is presented by an excitation function of micro barns, and we use pre-compound mechanism based on exciton model to describe it. Three fitting parameters at the formulae are proposed where the even-odd contribution is taken into consideration, 31 nuclei are investigated with mass number A \(17 \le A \le 238\) . Compared to previous studies, low values of \(\chi ^{2}\) and \(\Sigma\) are obtained, achieving 0.91 and 16.53 respectively, for even A nuclei, 1.57 and 10.98 respectively, for odd A nuclei. These formulae reproach more calculated cross sections from experiment data and predict the unmeasured ones. This work improves that, in addition to the equilibrium model, the pre-equilibrium model is useful in weak nuclear reaction description.
