“…Among the light elements, sodium is important for material, earth and environmental sciences, and cultural heritage as well, being a component of glass, minerals, sea spray aerosol particles and pigments. Very few data of interest for application of proton elastic backscattering analysis on sodium were found in the literature and in nuclear databases [1][2][3][4]; moreover, all data appear in graphical form in the original references and are anyway limited to 3.5 MeV proton energy. The 23 Na(p,p 0 c) 23 Na and 23 Na(p,a 0 c) 20 Ne reactions, yielding suitable prompt c-rays of 440, 1634 and 1636 keV, have been studied in the past in the proton energy range 1.0-4.5 MeV [5][6][7][8], but no absolute cross-section data were given, apart in the work from Mateus et al [8] which is anyway limited to 2.4 MeV proton energy.…”

Differential cross-sections for proton elastic scattering on sodium and for c-ray emission from the reactions 23 Na(p,p 0 c) 23 Na (E c = 440 keV and E c = 1636 keV) and 23 Na(p,a 0 c) 20 Ne (E c = 1634 keV) were measured for proton energies from 2.2 to 5.2 MeV using a 63 lg/cm 2 NaBr target evaporated on a self-supporting thin C film. The c-rays were detected by a 38% relative efficiency Ge detector placed at an angle of 135° with respect to the beam direction, while the backscattered protons were collected by a Si surface barrier detector placed at a scattering angle of 150°. Absolute differential cross-sections were obtained with an overall uncertainty estimated to be better than ±6.0% for elastic scattering and ±12% for c-ray emission, at all the beam energies. To provide a convincing test of the overall validity of the measured elastic scattering cross-section, thick target benchmark experiments at several proton energies are presented.
