Abstract
This paper presents comparisons between photoneutron production measurement s in tungsten, copper, praseodymium and beryllium, and calculated data resu lting from the ELEPHANT (ELEctron, PHoton And Neutron Transport) code. Meas urements were made using the DGA/ETCA linear electron accelerator located a t Arcueil, France. Bremsstrahlung endpoints varying in the 15-25 MeV energy range were used. Detectors were positioned at different angles with respec t to the electron beam axis. Each measured value is compared with the corre sponding calculated value. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.
