Production of megavolt neutron beams with relative energy spread of ∼5x10-4

Description

A method for production of megavolt neutron beams with relative energy spread of ∼ 5x10-4 based on using electrostatic accelerator and a foilless gas target permitting to realize continuous and easily controlled reproduction of working substance (acetone, heavy water) is described. Differential pumping of vapors of working substance by freezing in refrigerators cooled by liquid nitrogen is used in the target. Technique for using neutron beams from the 12C(d, n) reaction for measuring total cross sections of neutron interaction with nuclei and differential cross sections of elastic scattering is developed
