Description

Production of fast neutrons by the reactions 9Be(p,n)9B, 11B(p,n)11C, 51V(p,n)51Cr and 9Be(α,n)12C is surveyed with an upper neutron energy limit of about 30 MeV. More recent cross section measurements are included into the data base and their impact on the results of previous reviews is investigated. Besides the use of 1H(11B,n)11C as a monoenergetic source for 11.4 MeV neutrons and as a two-line source between 11.9 and 20.6 MeV is discussed. (author)
