Popis: | Excitation functions were measured by the stacked-foil technique for $^{61}\mathrm{Ni}$(p,\ensuremath{\alpha}${)}^{58}$${\mathrm{Co}}^{\mathit{m}}$ and $^{61}\mathrm{Ni}$(p,\ensuremath{\alpha}${)}^{58}$${\mathrm{Co}}^{\mathit{m}+\mathit{g}}$ reactions using 88.84% enriched $^{61}\mathrm{Ni}$ from threshold up to 18.6 MeV. Thin samples of $^{61}\mathrm{Ni}$ were prepared by electrodeposition on gold foils. The radioactivity of the activation products was determined via high resolution x- and \ensuremath{\gamma}-ray spectrometry. From the measured experimental data isomeric cross-section ratios [${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\sigma}}}_{\mathit{m}}$/${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\sigma}}}_{\mathit{m}+\mathit{g}}$] were deduced. Statistical model calculations taking into account precompound effects were performed for the strong $^{61}\mathrm{Ni}$(p,xn) channels as well as for the weak $^{61}\mathrm{Ni}$(p,\ensuremath{\alpha}) process. The experimental $^{61}\mathrm{Ni}$(p,xn) and $^{61}\mathrm{Ni}$(p,\ensuremath{\alpha}) excitation functions are described well by the calculation over the whole investigated energy range. The isomeric cross-section ratio for the isomeric pair $^{58}\mathrm{Co}^{\mathit{m},}$g formed in the $^{61}\mathrm{Ni}$(p,\ensuremath{\alpha}) process is also reproduced well by the model calculation, provided the input level scheme and the spin distribution are properly taken into account. |
