Construction of a low-voltage accelerating machine for accelerating deuterons which is utilized as a source of production of 14-Mev neutrons by T/sup 3/(d,n)He/sup 4/ reaction is described. Neutron counting has been done by counting recoil protons in a suitable scintillation counter. Neutron yield hss also been measured indirectly from saturated activity of an irradiated thin silver foil. Increase in relative flux with increasing deuteron energy trom 30 kev to 0.1 Mev has been obtained. (auth)
