The GEANIE spectrometer located at the LANSCE/WNR facility is capable of measuring absolute partial γ-ray cross sections as a function of neutron energy. Using GEANIE, measurements on targets of ^89Y and ^90Zr were performed and the partial γ-ray cross sections extracted for neutron energies up to 20 MeV. For the (n,n^') channel, the observation of most of the ground-state transitions and those feeding the long-lived isomeric states greatly reduces the reliance on model calculations to extract the channel cross section, and, in fact, provide a very stringent test of the calculations. For higher-multiplicity particle-exit channels, model calculations have to be relied on to a far greater degree in order to extract the channel cross sections. The results of the measurements will be presented, as well as comparisons with calculations and inferred channel cross sections.
