Double differential (n,xp) and (n,x{alpha}) cross section ratio measurements are performed at the 7 MV Van de Graaff for neutron energies between 2.0 and 15.5 MeV. The following reaction rate ratios are measured: {sup 63}Cu(n,xp) to {sup 58}Ni(n,xp), {sup 63}Cu(n,xp) to {sup 27}Al(n,x{alpha}) and {sup 58}Ni(n,x{alpha}) to {sup 27}Al(n,x{alpha}). The measurement procedure with the five angle {Delta}E-{Delta}E-E telescope was checked by measuring the known reaction rate ratio of {sup 58}Ni(n,p) to {sup 27}Al(n,{alpha}). Cross section data of {sup 63}Cu(n,xp) and {sup 58}Ni(n,x{alpha}) are compared with evaluated data and with cross sections obtained by calculation with the STAPRE-H code.
