Cross-sections and their isomeric ratios () for the185Re(n, 2n)184mRe and185Re(n, 2n)184gRe reactions in the 13–15 MeV range were measured. The neutron activation technique was applied using the K-400 neutron generator at the Chinese Academy of Engineering Physics (CAEP). Natural Re samples and Nb monitor foils were activated jointly to determine the reaction cross-section and the incident neutron flux. The3H(d, n)4He reaction was used to generate the neutron beam. The pure cross-section of the ground state was derived from the absolute cross-section of the metastable state using residual nuclear decay analysis. Numerical calculations using the nuclear-model-based computer code TALYS-1.8 with six level density models were used to obtain185Re(n, 2n)184m, gRe reaction excitation functions and their isomeric cross-section ratios. Finally, experimentally determined cross-sections were compared with corresponding literature data.
