Evaluation of A-dependence of cross-sections for light charged particle production in proton induced reactions at intermediate energies

Abstract

Abstract Proton-, deuteron-, triton-, 3He, and α-particle production cross-sections were evaluated for proton induced reactions for 278 stable target nuclei with an atomic number from 3 to 83 for a number of incident proton energies from 62 to 1200 MeV using available experimental data and results of model calculations. Data obtained can be used for the evaluation of gas production cross-sections and gas production rates in reactions induced by intermediate energy protons. An example of the use of the data is given for 9Be(p,x) reactions.
