Light charged particle emission from neutron and α -induced reactions

Emissions of protons and α -particles from neutron and α -induced reactions have been estimated using two nuclear reaction model codes ALICE91 and PRECO-2000. Calculated results have been compared with available energy differential and double differential emission cross sections from experimental me...

Description
Summary:Emissions of protons and α -particles from neutron and α -induced reactions have been estimated using two nuclear reaction model codes ALICE91 and PRECO-2000. Calculated results have been compared with available energy differential and double differential emission cross sections from experimental measurements. Analysis of the data based on different nuclear reaction mechanisms revealed the relative importance of these mechanisms as well as predictive capabilities of the codes used. These results are useful in accelerator-driven systems, radioactive ion beam facilities and space dosimetry.
