摘要
Cross sections of the 10B(n,α)7Li reaction(including the total,the“leaking”alpha,forward alpha and backward alpha parts)at En=4.0 and 5.0 MeV were measured using an asymmetrical twin gridded ionization chamber and two back−to-back 10B samples.Measurements were performed at the 4.5 MV Van de Graaff accelerator of Peking University.Monoenergetic neutrons were produced through the ^(2)H(d,n)3He reaction with a deuterium gas target.Absolute neutron flux was determined by a ^(238)U sample set inside the gridded ionization chamber and a BF_(3) long counter was employed as a neutron flux monitor and for normalization.The present results are compared with previous measurements and evaluations.
