Description

The reaction 45Sc(p,n)45Ti has been investigated for the production of monoenergetic neutrons in the low keV region. The cross section of the reaction has several isolated, narrow resonances (line width less than 0.5 keV), which makes it possible to produce monoenergetic neutrons from 0.5 keV to 40 KeV. This source was found to be suitable for calibrating radiation protection instrumentation
