Abstract: The 112Cd(n,2n)111mCd and 112Cd(n,p)112Ag reaction cross sections have been measured at the neutron energy of 14.54 ± 0.24 MeV by using the method of activation and off-line γ -ray spectroscopy. The mano-energetic neutrons were obtained from the D–T reaction using the Purnima Neutron Generator at BARC. The 197Au(n,2n)196Au and115In(n, n1)115mIn reactions were used for neutron flux monitors. The covariance analysis for the uncertainties in the measured reaction cross sections has been done based on various uncertained attributes. The experimental values were compared with the theoritically calculated values from TALYS-1.95 code, evaluated data from different libraries and literature data based on EXFOR compilation.
