Interaction of 14 MeV neutrons with hydrogenated target proton emission calculation

Using neutron emission data of a 14 MeV neutron generator, a paraffin target, and based on the n + H1→ n'+ p reaction, have been obtained the characteristics of the proton emission in a proton-neutron mixed field. It was used Monte Carlo simulation and it was obtained the proton output as function of the converter width and the energy spectrum of protons corresponding to different converter thickness. Among 0.07 and 0.2 cm there is a maximum zone for the proton emission. The energy spectrum agrees with obtained on previous papers. Figures showing these results are provided
