  Activation cross-sections for deuteron induced reactions on Sm are presented
for the first time for
$^{nat}$Sm(d,xn)$^{155,154,152m2,152m1,152g,150m,150g,149,148,147,146}$Eu,
$^{nat}$Sm(d,x)$^{153,145}$Sm and $^{nat}$Sm(d,x)$^{151,150,149,145,144,143}$Pm
up to 50 MeV. The cross-sections were measured by the stacked-foil irradiation
technique and high resolution $\gamma$-ray spectrometry. The results were
compared with results of nuclear reaction codes ALICE-D, EMPIRE-D and TALYS
(from TENDL libraries). Integral yields of the products were calculated from
the excitation functions.
