β¦ Synopsis
In the context of the design of an intense source of low and intermediate energy neutrons, the angular and energy distributions of neutrons produced in the interaction of 90 MeV protons in a 13 C target, in which the protons are stopped, have been measured by time-of-flight and activation techniques. As compared to 12 C the yield is less than a factor two higher, while it is somewhat less than for a 9 Be target.

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 m
