Abstract

The use of nuclear reactions induced by thermal neutrons for the determination of atomic masses is illustrated with some recent experimental results obtained at the Grenoble high flux reactor. Themasses of the unstable isotopes ¹⁵³Gd and ²³⁵Th are determined via the ¹⁵³Gd(n_th, α)¹⁵⁰Sm and the ²³⁸U(n_th, α)²³⁵Th reactions. The ⁵⁰V-⁵⁰Ti mass-difference is determined via the ⁵⁰V(n_th, p)⁵⁰Ti reaction.
