“…In addition, the experimental data are compared with two PHITS calculations using the total cross sections calculated by the Shen formula [15] and by the NASA formula [16] in Figure 11 for 9 MeV and 0°. The JQMD model was adopted as an option of nuclear reaction models.…”

Double differential neutron yields from carbon target irradiated by 5 MeV and 9 MeV deuterons were measured at the Kyushu University Tandem Accelerator Laboratory. A carbon target was thick enough to stop the incident deuterons in the target. An NE213 liquid organic scintillator was employed to detect neutrons emitted from the target and placed at several directions from 0° to 140°. To estimate the contribution of scattered neutrons from the floor and walls, neutron yields were measured with an iron shadow bar located in front of the scintillator. The measured energy spectrum was derived by an unfolding method with FORIST and MAXED codes using the response functions of the NE213 scintillator calculated with the SCINFUL-QMD code. The incident energy dependence of total thick target neutron yields for carbon was investigated over the energy range from 5 to 50 MeV and the empirical formula was obtained. The measured neutron energy spectra were also compared with the calculations by PHITS code.

“…For the nucleus-nucleus inelastic cross sections, there exist different phenomenological models and fits of the experimental data, see e.g. [81][82][83][84][85][86][87][88][89][90]. This cross section shows an energy dependence below T p < 0.2 GeV/nucleon, above which it approaches the geometrical cross section and thus, thereafter, it remains constant.…”

“…The semi-empirical / Phenomenological model for fragmentation NUCFRG2 [1] and for absorption ABSXSEC [2], have modeled the essential physics. These models are coupled to the transport codes and, therefore, are meant to be very fast and accurate and give excellent results for the fragmentation and absorption cross sections.…”

Abstract. We show that nuclear physics is extremely important for accurate risk assessments for space missions. Due to paucity of experimental input radiation interaction information it is imperative to develop reliable accurate models for the interaction of radiation with matter. State-of-the-art nuclear cross sections models have been developed at the NASA Langley Research center and are discussed.
