Results are compared with enhanced Hauser–Feshbach model calculations including the pre-equilibrium reactions. Energetic neutrons were delivered by the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center facility. The prompt-reaction γ-rays were detected with the compton-suppressed germanium array for neutron-induced excitations (GEANIE). Incident neutron energies were determined by the time-of-flight technique. Excitation functions for thirteen individual γ-rays up to Ex=0.8MeV in 149Sm and one γ-ray transition between the first excited and ground state in 148Sm were measured. Partial γ-ray cross-sections were calculated using GNASH, an enhanced Hauser–Feshbach statistical nuclear reaction model code, and compared with the experimental results. The particle transmission coefficients were calculated with new systematic “global” optical model potential parameters. A coupled-channels optical model based on a soft rotor model was employed to calculate the particle transmission coefficients. The pre-equilibrium part of the spin-distribution in 150Sm was calculated using the quantum mechanical theory of Feshbach, Kerman, and Koonin (FKK) and incorporated into the GNASH reaction model code. The partial cross-sections for discrete γ-ray cascade paths leading to the ground state in 149Sm and 148Sm have been summed (without double counting) to estimate lower limits for reaction cross-sections.
