The spectrum of neutrons emitted from a thick beryllium target bombarded with 7 MeV deuterons is measured at 25 reaction angles distributed between 0/sup 0/ and 158/sup 0/, and over the neutron energy range approx. =<0.8 to >11.0 MeV. The spectrum is determined relative to the standard /sup 252/Cf prompt-fission-neutron-spectrum using fast time-of-flight techniques. The results are presented as angle-energy differential distributions and as relative numerical group cross sections suitable for establishing a reference field for applied studies. 24 refs., 4 figs.
