The cross sections for the Cu-63(n,)Co60(m+g),Cu-65(n,2n)Cu-64, and Cu-65(n,p)Ni-65 reactions have been studied in the neutron energy range of 13.5-14.8MeV using the activation technique. The neutron beams were produced via the H-3(d,n)He-4 reaction. The neutron energies of different directions in the measurements were determined beforehand by the method of cross section ratios for the Zr-90(n,2n)Zr89m+g and Nb-93(n,2n)Nb-92m reactions. The results in the present work were discussed and compared with measurement results found in the literatures.
