Abstract
A continuous flow vanadium bath has been used to measure the neutron yield from different accelerator targets, and the correction factors which have to be applied are discussed. The results of yield measurements for protons from 5 to 10 MeV on thick targets of Li, Be, Cu and Co are given and compared with calculated values. Based on these comparisons comments are made on the accuracy of the cross sections used in the yield calculations.
