✦ Synopsis

The excitation functions of the reactions Mg u (n,p), Si t (n,p), C137 (n,p), Sr ss (n,p), Cu ea (n,2n) and Zn e4 (n,2n) have been measured, using neutrons of energies between 12.5 MeV and 17.5 MeV from the T(d,n) reaction. The significance of the results is discussed from the viewpoint both of the theory of the compound nucleus and a theory of direct interaction.
