High quality nuclear reaction data for radionuclides is lacking, which can be best rectified by performing direct measurements of neutron-induced reactions on the target nuclei of interest. Two instruments at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center, the Low Energy (n,Z) (LENZ) instrument and the Device for Indirect Capture Experiments on Radionuclides (DICER), can perform such measurements on radioactive targets. This manuscript covers the target requirements for such experiments and provides examples of how defects in the targets manifests in the measured data.
