Scattering cross-sections and partial kerma factors for neutron interactions with carbon at 20 less than En less than 65 MeV.
New measurements of differential elastic and inelastic neutron scattering from 12C at En = 20.8, 22, 24 and 26 MeV are presented and analysed in terms of both spherical and deformed optical model potentials. Results of these analyses are compared with other recent differential and total cross-section measurements in order to obtain a consistent representation of the energy dependence of neutron scattering over a broad energy range. Heavy ion recoil kerma factors are calculated and compared with earlier measurements and estimates of these quantities.
