“…The systematic error on the recoil energy measurement is due to the uncertainty in the MINERvA detector energy scale set by muons and differences between the simulated calorimetric response to single hadrons and the response measured by the test beam program. Additional uncertainties are due to differences between the Geant model of neutron interactions and thin target data on neutron scattering in carbon, iron and copper [39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46]. We evaluate further sources of systematic error by loosening analysis cuts on energy near the vertex and on extra isolated energy depositions, repeating the fit to the background and subsequent analysis, and assigning an uncertainty to cover the difference.…”

We have isolatedνµ charged-current quasi-elastic interactions occurring in the segmented scintillator tracking region of the MINERvA detector running in the NuMI neutrino beam at Fermilab. We measure the flux-averaged differential cross-section, dσ/dQ 2 , and compare to several theoretical models of quasi-elastic scattering. Good agreement is obtained with a model where the nucleon axial mass, MA, is set to 0.99 GeV/c 2 but the nucleon vector form factors are modified to account for the observed enhancement, relative to the free nucleon case, of the cross-section for the exchange of transversely polarized photons in electron-nucleus scattering. Our data at higher Q 2 favor this interpretation over an alternative in which the axial mass is increased.

“…The solid line shows the evaluated result [12] from GNASH model calculations transformed into the laboratory frame of reference; the dashed line shows the results from Brenner and Prael's calculations [38]. It is evident that the evaluated result is in good agreement with the experimental data [17,[19][20][21], with the exception of the 70 MeV proton production where the calculation underpredicts the measurement.…”

“…We also made use of neutron total non-elastic cross section measurements compiled by the NNDC [13]. Charged-particle production spectra have been particularly important for guiding and testing the calculations, principally the measurements from the University of California at Davis [17,18], Los Alamos [19], Louvain-la-Neuve [20][21][22] and Tohoku University [23].…”

These data are represented in the ENDF format and can be used in computer codes to simulate radiation transport. They permit calculations of absorbed dose in the body from therapy beams, and through use of kerma coefficients allow absorbed dose to be estimated for a given neutron energy distribution. For radiation protection, these data can be used to determine shielding requirements in accelerator environments, and to calculate neutron, proton,~-ray, and radionuclide production. Illui%rative comparisons of the evaluated cross section and kerma coefficient data with measurements are given.

“…To satisfy these needs, a series of experiments have successfully been performed for several targets (C, O, Si, Fe, Pb, and U) at 96 MeV using the quasi mono-energetic neutron facility at the The Svedberg Laboratory (TSL) [1][2][3]. Similar light-ion production measurements have been carried in the incident energy range below 100 MeV at other facilities as well [4,5]. However, there has been no systematic measurement at energies between 100 and 200 MeV until now.…”

Abstract.A collaborative research project has been launched on neutron-induced light-ion production measurements using the new Uppsala neutron beam facility. The available energy range of quasi mono-energetic neutron beams is extended up to 175 MeV. Double-differential cross sections (DDXs) of light-ion production (p, d, t, 3 He, and α) are measured using a conventional spectrometer system which consists of eight counter telescopes. Each telescope is composed of two silicon surface barrier detectors as the ∆E detectors and a CsI(Tl) scintillator as the E detector. Response of the scintillators to 160 MeV protons is measured to test the performance. The measured response is reproduced well by a PHITS transport calculation. The DDXs of light-ion production are measured for Ca at 94 MeV and C at 175 MeV at angles between 20• to 160• in steps of 20• . The preliminary experimental (n,xp) data are shown in comparison with a model calculation using the TALYS code and the evaluated cross sections in the JENDL high-energy file.
