✦ Synopsis

Well-verified models for elastic and inelastic scattering of fast neutrons (and protons) from ({ }^{12} \mathrm{C}) and ({ }^{16} \mathrm{O}) are translated into a useful form for transport, dosimetry, and scintillator response calculations. The information presented here is complementary to published calculations (D. J. Brenner and R. E. Prael, ATOMIC DATA AND NUCLEAR DaTa TABLes 41, 71, 1989) of secondary-particle production by incident neutrons in the energy region (15 \leqslant E_{\mathrm{n}} \leqslant 60 \mathrm{MeV}). Tables are given of Legendre expansion coefficients derived from fits to experimental cross sections at incident neutron energies (E_{\mathrm{n}}=18-26) (\mathrm{MeV}) and from fits to model predictions for (30-) to (60-\mathrm{MeV}) neutrons. क 1994 Academic Press.
