Abstract
Neutron spectra from the H-2(d,n)He-3 and Be-9(d,n)B-10 neutron source reac tions and a Pu-Be source were measured by a pulse height response spectrome ter behind slabs of water, graphite, sand, Pb, Al and Fe up to 20 cm thickn esses. A comparison of the measured and the calculated data has given new r esults for the validation of different data libraries. (C) 1999 Elsevier Sc ience B.V. All rights reserved.
