Description

This review summarises the experimental data up to 2008 on energy and angular distributions of neutrons produced from thick targets of various materials bombarded by protons, deuterons, He and heavier ions having a wide energy range from MeV to GeV. Total neutron yields and the moving source model approximations are also presented. Production cross-section data for spallation by proton to Ar ion are summarised in this paper, as well as excitation functions, mass-yield distributions and induced activities. Very recent results on induced activities are included for Ar and U ions. (authors)
