Study of fragment yields, fission and neutron production in lead targets induced by intermediate energy protons

Abstract

A review of the experiments on neutron production in thin and thick lead targets and those involving fission reactions and nuclear fragment emission from various targets performed with proton beams from the Dubna synchrophasotron is given. Two different experimental methods, TOF and SSNTD, were used in the measurements. A dependence of the results on proton energy and target type is discussed.
