Özet

© 2021 World Scientific Publishing Company.In this work, the proton induced fission reaction cross-sections and fission yields are calculated for some actinides (232Th, 233,235,236,238U, 237Np, and 239Pu) using the fission barrier models of the TALYS 1.95 code. Cross-sections and fission yield calculations are carried out up to 100 MeV incident proton energies. The calculation results are compared with the available experimental data in the EXFOR library. In addition, a relative variance analysis of fission barrier models was done to determine the fission barrier model whose results best matched with the experimental results. Among the fission barrier models, the best agreement with the experimental data is obtained from the rotating-finite-range fission barrier model calculation for the (p,f) reaction of the studied nuclei having the atomic mass number larger than 230. On the other hand, fission barrier heights for the studied reactions are determined using the same models.
