✦ Synopsis


We measured angular and energy distributions of neutrons from an iron target bombarded by 210 MeV protons at angles of 0 ; 7:5 ; 15 ; 30 ; 60 ; 90 and 110 using the RIKEN Ring Cyclotron. The measured results are compared with the calculations using the MCNPX and NMTC/JAM codes with several physics models. These calculations generally agree with the measurements except at forward angles. We also show the angular distribution and total neutron yield from 0 to 180 ; integrated above 5 MeV; to compare with similar experiments in the medium energy region of projectile protons.

The ''manganese bath'' technique has been perfected to measure the total number of neutrons emitted when 23-80 MeV proton beams bombard a beryllium target. It consists in surrounding the neutron source with a large metallic cylinder filled with a manganese sulphate (MnSO 4 ) solution. The neutrons a
