All cross sections, angular distributions, energy spectra, and double differential cross sections are consistently calculated and analyzed for n+93Nb reaction at incident neutron energy up to 200 MeV based on the nuclear theoretical models. The theoretical calculated results are compared with the existing experimental data and the evaluated data in ENDF/B-VII, JENDL-4, and TENDL-2015. The calculated results agree with the experiential data.
