Abstract
Dosimetry measurements on a neutron beam produced by the p(26 MeV)+Be reaction from the variable energy cyclotron at AERE, Harwell are reported. Where possible the results are compared with those reported by Johnson et. al., (1976) for the same reaction, and of Bewley and Parnell (1969) for the d(16 MeV)+Be reaction from the cyclotron at Hammersmith Hospital.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
