The ^232Th（n,γ）^233Th neutron capture reaction cross sections were measured at average neutron energies of 14.1 MeV and 14.8 MeV using the activation method.The neutron flux was determined using the monitor reaction^27Al（n,α）^24Na.The induced gamma-ray activities were measured using a low background...
