“…They have a cylindrical shape with 50 mm diameter, where the last 30 mm are tapered to 18 mm diameter to match the size of a Hamamatsu S3204-08 photodiode for the light read out. The signals from each telescope are processed using the same data acquisition system as in the previous measurements [5] [6] [7] [8].…”

“…Previous experiments has been conducted with the MEDLEY spectrometer setup at 96 MeV measuring neutron induced light-ion production cross sections from Fe, Pb, U [4], Si [5], O [6], C [7] and at a e-mail: riccardo.bevilacqua@physics.uu.se 175 MeV from C [8], where thicker CsI scintillators have been installed to fully stop the light ions generated in the 175 MeV neutron induced reactions. In the present work the neutron beam line has been updated with the installation of an extra iron shielding in order to reduce the background neutrons.…”

Abstract.We have measured light-ion (p, d, t, 3 He and α) production in the interaction of 175 MeV neutrons with iron and bismuth, using the MEDLEY setup. A large set of measurements at 96 MeV has been recently completed and published, and now higher energy region is under investigation. MEDLEY is a conventional spectrometer system that allows low-energy thresholds and offers measurements over a wide angular range. The system consists of eight telescopes, each of them composed of two silicon surface barrier detectors, to perform particle identification, and a CsI(Tl) scintillator to fully measure the kinetic energy of the produced light-ions. The telescopes are placed at angles from 20 • to 160 • , in steps of 20 • . Measurements have been performed at The Svedberg Laboratory, Uppsala (Sweden), where a quasi mono-energetic neutron beam is available and well characterized. Time of flight techniques are used to select light-ion events induced by neutrons in the main peak of the source neutron spectrum. We report preliminary double differential cross sections for production of protons, deuterons and tritons in comparison with model calculations using TALYS-1.0 code.

The present status of neutron beam facilities above 20 MeV is reviewed. Presently, two main techniques for neutron production at these energies are used; white beams and quasi-monoenergetic beams. The performances of these two techniques are discussed, as well as the use of such facilities for measurements of nuclear data for fundamental and applied research. Recently, two novel ideas on how to produce extremely intense neuton beams in the 100-500 MeV range have been proposed. Decay in flight of beta-delayed neutron-emitting nuclei could provide beam intensities five orders of magnitudes larger than present facilities. A typical neutron energy spectrum would be essentially mono-energetic, i.e., the energy spread is about 1 MeV with essentially no lowenergy tail. A second option would be to produce beams of 6 He and dissociate the 6 He nuclei into α particles and neutrons. The basic features of these concept are outlined, and the potential for improved nuclear data research is discussed.

Abstract.Over the past years an experimental programme has been run at the neutron beam of The Svedberg Laboratory with the aim to study light-ion production induced by 96 and 175 MeV neutrons for a wide variety of targets. The measurements have been conducted using the Medley facility which allows measurement of p, d, t, He-3 and alpha production at fixed angles (from 20 to 160 degrees in steps of 20 degrees) over a wide dynamic range. An overview of the results obtained at the now finished campaign at 96 MeV will be given. Since 2007 we have been running at 175 MeV with C, O, Si, Fe, Bi and U as target material. Preliminary results from these measurements will be shown and compared to model calculations with Talys-1.2. We also summarize the Medley measurements of elastic np and nd scattering and of angular distributions of fission fragments.
