Generation of cross section for neutron induced nuclear reaction on iridium and tantalum isotope using machine learning technique

In this work, we proposed a new approach in generating nuclear data using machine learning techniques. This paper focused on generation of nuclear cross section for neutron induced-nuclear reaction on iridium isotopes (Ir-191) and tantalum isotopes (Ta-181) target, specifically 191Ir (n,p)191Os and...
