    Abstract:
    The energy spectra of neutrons produced by 35 and 46 MeV protons, 16 and 28 MeV deuterons, and 44 MeV 3He ions on thick beryllium were measured at angles of 0 degrees, 15 degrees, and 45 degrees with respect to the incident beams. The spectra were measured by the time-of-flight method for neutrons from the maximum energy down to 1 MeV. Neutron dose rates obtained from the zero-degree spectra by use of available tissue kerma factors agree with TE-TE ionization chamber measurements.
