THE SCATTERING OF NEUTRONS BY /cap alpha/-PARTICLES
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4818746
Angular distributions of neutrons scattered by alpha -particles were measured at neutron energies between 2 and 23 Mev by observng recoiling alpha - particles in a high-pressure gas scintillator. At the highest bombarding energy, the disintegration of alpha -particles by neutrons was also observed. Total cross sections ot helium were measured at four neutron energies between 7 and 12 Mev in a simple transmission experiment. The total cross sections agree with values calculated from the analysis of p- alpha scattering by Dodder and Gammel. The angular distributions agree with these calculations quite well up to a neutron energy of 15 Mev, but not as well at higher energies. At the higher energies, the disagreement is even greater with calculations based on an analysis of p- alpha scattering by Gammel and Thaler. (auth)
