The 0/sup 0/ neutron spectra resulting from 800 MeV proton bombardment of targets of Al, Ti, Cu, W, Pb, and U have been measured for neutron momenta above 500 MeV/c. Integrated cross sections for the quasielastic charge exchange peaks and the broad pion associated peaks at lower momenta show a remarkably smooth dependence on atomic mass of the target, varying as A/sup 2/3/ and A/sup 1/2/, respectively.
