Abstract

The possibility of the Gadolinium nuclei energy levels population inversion under neutron bombardment is theoretically shown. In the process two isotopes of gadolinium take part. Light isotope Gd¹⁵⁵ capturing neutron transforms to heavy isotope Gd¹⁵⁶ at that heavy nucleus is in an excited metastable state. The population inversion is investigating during several tens of second when the neutron flux intensity is 10¹³ cm^-2 · s^-1.
