Abstract

Two FORTRAN computer programs have been written to simulate the experimental data obtained in prompt radiation techniques. The first of these programs calculates the emitted particle energy spectrum from the ion beam bombardment of any given target. This program is able to deal with both nuclear reactions and Rutherford scattering and with any experimental geometry. Particular examples cited relate to the use of the 12C(d.p) 13C and 16O(d, α) 14N nuclear reactions and also to alpha particle backscattering. The second program deals with the case of proton induced resonant gamma emission, producing a graph of gamma yield versus incident proton energy, and may be applied to any reaction involving a Breit-Wigner resonance. Examples given are of profiling using the 27Al(p, γ) 28Si resonance at 992 keV and the wider 19F(p, αγ) 16O resonance at 872 keV.
