Particle distribution around a copper beam stop for 72 MeV protons.
Results are presented of an experiment to study neutron yields at different production angles from 72 MeV protons stopping in copper. Activation detectors were used to provide data on neutron energies and flux densities. The results of a spectrum unfolding analysis are presented and compared with a Monte Carlo calculation. Some dosimetric data are also included.
