Measurement of the charged particle spectra from neutron irradiated tissue-equivalent plastic.

The charged particle spectra from the 49 MeV deuteron on beryllium neutron beam onto Shonka A-150 tissue-equivalent plastic has been measured as a function of off-axis angle from 10° to 90°. Particle detection was accomplished by silicon detectors in a detector telescope array. A ΔE-E algorithm was...
