DIAGNOSTIC NEUTRON SPECTRA FROM DEUTERONS ON SEVERAL MATERIALS.

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

When collectively accelerated deuterons in pulsed electron beam machines interact with structural materials and insulators, they produce neutrons that can be used for diagnostic purposes. This paper describes a method for synthesizing neutron spectra that such devices might produce. It involves averaging experimental nuclear reaction data over angle and over energy to approximate the distributions in angle and in energy of deuterons as they impinge upon materials.
