Abstract
The 17O(nth,alpha)14C reaction cross section was determined at the high flux reactor of the ILL in Grenoble relative to the known 14N(nth,p)14C cross section. The 17O(nth,alpha)14C measurements were performed with several highly enriched oxygen gas samples and the flux calibration was done with 14N2 from the air. This resulted in a precise value of (244+/-7)mb for the 17O(nth,alpha)14C cross section.
