Nakamura, Shoji  ; Hatsukawa, Yuichi*; Kimura, Atsushi   ; Toh, Yosuke   ; Harada, Hideo   

The present study performed fast-neutron capture cross-section measurement of $$^{99}$$Tc by an activation method using a fast-neutron source reactor "YAYOI" of the University of Tokyo. Technetium-99 samples were irradiated with reactor neutrons using a pneumatic system. Reaction rates of $$^{99}$$Tc were obtained by measuring decay gamma rays emitted from $$^{100}$$Tc. The neutron flux at an irradiation position was monitored with gold foils. The fast-neutron capture cross section of $$^{99}$$Tc at neutron energy of 85 keV was derived as 0.432$$pm$$0.023 barn by using the reaction rates of $$^{99}$$Tc, evaluated cross-section data and the fast-neutron flux spectrum of the YAYOI reactor. The present study agreed with the evaluated nuclear data library JENDL-4.0.
