Importance of the residual nucleus level density in the calculation of the 239Pu(n, 2n)238Pu excitation function

In parallel with the recent measurement by Méot et al. [1] of the 239Pu(n, 2n)238Pu reaction cross section in the [7-10] MeV neutron-incident energy range, a modeling work was undertaken to support the new measurement. This theoretical framework is here dedicated to study the impact of the type of l...
