Abstract: Cross sections for the 64Zn(n,2n)63Zn and 67Zn(n,p)67Cu reactions were measured at neutron energies of 17.10 ± 0.82 and 14.98 ± 0.81 MeV by neutron activation techniques and offline γ-ray spectroscopy method. Production of neutron was done by 7Li (p , n) reaction. The 27Al (n , α) 24Na reaction was used as a neutron flux monitor. Estimations were performed using TALYS-1.95 and EMPIRE 3.2.2 codes with default values. The measured cross sections were compared with literature data taken from the EXFOR database and the latest evaluated data from the ENDF/B-VIII.0, JEFF-3.3, JENDL-5.0 and TENDL-2021 libraries.
