neutron capture

Japanese: neutron capture(英語表記)neutroncapture
neutron capture

…As in other nuclear reactions, radioactive capture of neutrons (also called neutron capture) A(n,γ)B can occur through three major processes. For example, in the case of neutron capture, there are three processes: (1) direct capture, in which the incident neutron n enters a bound orbit around the target nucleus A and forms a residual nucleus B while emitting a gamma ray; (2) semi-direct capture, in which n is captured by A to form a relatively simple compound system, which then emits a gamma ray to reach the final state; and (3) compound capture, in which n combines with A to form a compound nucleus, which then emits a gamma ray to reach the final state. In the third process, a compound nucleus is formed only when the energy of the incident neutron is approximately equal to the energy of the compound nucleus, and there is a high probability of neutron capture. …

Japanese:

…他の核反応におけると同様に,大別して三つの反応過程を通して起こる。例えば中性子の放射性捕獲(単に中性子捕獲neutron captureともいう)A(n,γ)Bの場合,(1)入射中性子nが標的核Aのまわりの束縛軌道に入って残留核Bを形成すると同時にγ線を放出する直接捕獲,(2)nがAに捕獲されて比較的簡単な複合系をつくった後,その複合系がγ線を放出して最終状態になる半直接捕獲,(3)nがAと一体になって複合核を形成し,その複合核がγ線を放出して最終状態になる複合核捕獲の三つである。第3の過程では,入射中性子のエネルギーが複合核状態のエネルギーにほぼ等しいときだけ複合核がつくられ,大きな確率で中性子捕獲が起こる。…
