Triton-emission cross sections were measured for Al, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Nb, Mo, Ag, Ta, Tl, Pb and Bi with a 30 MeV d(Be) break-up neutron spectrum characterized by a multiple-foil activation technique. The accumulated tritium was separated by vacuum extraction and measured by low-level gas-phase β- counting. The systematic trend in the cross sections is somewhat similar to that in the 53 MeV d(Be) break-up neutron spectrum; apart from some initial decrease as a function of Z, the cross section is almost constant over the entire range of Z = 22 to 83. The magnitudes of the cross sections lie between those with 14 MeV neutrons and 53 MeV d(Be) break-up neutrons. Hauser-Feshbach calculations show that the statistical model describes the triton-emission cross sections for nuclei in the (2s, ld) shell within a factor of 2; for the heavier nuclei, however, the calculated cross sections are much smaller than the experimental values.
