Abstract: The excitation functions for the 55Mn(α,n)58m,gCo, 55Mn(α,2n)57Co and 55Mn(α,α' n)54Mn reactions are measured by the activation method and stacked-foil technique for energies ranging from 10.4 to 26.5 MeV. The experimental results are compared with the theoretical calculation using the exciton model. It shows that the preequilibrium emission reaction mechanism is present in these reactions.
