Determination of energy and fluence of neutrons from relativistic heavy ion interactions by nuclear track technique
The determination of average energy and fluence of neutrons from 44GeV 12C+Cu (thick target) has been carried out at the synchrophasotron accelerator of Joint Institute for Nuclear Research
Dubna
USSR with CR-39 detectors. It is shown that the average energy is 15.8±2.8MeV and the fluence is (4.5±0.3)×109/cm2 at -60cm from the target and -70° to 12C beam when 6×1011 12C ions impinge on the target. This method can also be used to determine the angular distribution of neutrons from relativistic heavy ion interactions and the average neutron number per incident heavy ion or per interaction.
