    Journal: Radiat Prot Dosimetry; 2007; 126(1-4):104-8. PubMed ID: 17513289.
    Abstract:
    Experimental differential cross sections of fragment emission (p, d, t, alpha, Li, Be and B), which were obtained for tens of mega electron volt neutrons on carbon and aluminum, using a counter telescope array and a Bragg-curve counter specially developed for neutron-induced reactions, are presented and compared with theoretical calculations using various reaction models. A calculation with the ISOBAR and GEM models was found to reproduce the experimental data except for an underestimation in non-vaporation processes. Calculations of the energy deposition by neutrons in a thin silicon layer show significant differences among the model employed.
