- Abstract
Possibility of low-energy nuclear reactions (LENR) occurrence is considered due to dineutron formation in the outgoing channel of a neutroninduced nuclear reaction on 159Tb. In the instrumental gamma-ray spectra of Tb sample irradiated with 6.85 MeV neutrons, we observed the surplusinduced activity of 160Tb/160Dy in addition to 160Tb activity, originated from the 159Tb(n,947)160Tb nuclear reaction. We assumed that accumulation of 160Tb/160Dy activity results from strong processes via nuclear reactions at room temperature. The cross section for 158Tb(d, γ)160Dy is estimated as 44.5 b.
