Abstract
Cross section for (n, 2n) reaction on Yttrium have been measured at energy of 14 MeV neutrons from H(d, n)He by using activation technique. The ^93Nb(n, 2n)^92mNb reaction was used to monitor the neutron fluence, HPGe detector was used to detect the γ-rays. The cross section of ^89Y (n, 2n)^88Y reaction are 759 ± 42, 835 ±42, 958 ±53 mb for neutron energy 13.5 ±0.3, 14.1±0.2, 14.6 ±0.3 MeV, respectively.
