Abstract
Measurements of discrete gamma-ray spectra from neutron-induced reactions on a BeO sample have been performed using the broad-spectrum neutron spallation source of the WNR facility at LANSCE. Incident neutron energies were determined by the time-of-flight technique. Two high-purity Ge detectors were used to detect gamma rays in the energy range from 0.150 to 9.0 MeV. Spectra were measured at seven angles. Absolute gamma-ray production cross sections were determined from the measured neutron fluence and detector efficiencies. A new evaluation of the reaction cross sections has been performed based on this data. Comparisons with neutron inelastic scattering measurements show good agreement.
