5-BEV NEUTRON CROSS SECTIONS IN HYDROGEN AND OTHER ELEMENTS (thesis)

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4200110
The neutron total and reaction cross sections of Pb, Sn, Cu, Al, C, and H were measured at 5.0 Bev. Transmission measurements were made in good and poor geometry. A high-energy neutron beam is produced when the Bevatron circulating proton beam strikes a copper target. Neutrons are ideintified by their production of pions in a beryllium block, which are then detected by a counter telescope including a gas Cherenkov counter. The threshold of this gas Cherenkov counter limits the mean effective neutron energy to 5.0 plus or minus 0.4 Bev. (auth)
