Target mass dependence of photoneutron spectrum for 16.6 MeV photons on medium-heavy mass targets

Le résumé fourni par la source

We measured neutron energy spectra for the photonuclear reactions of 16.6 MeV linearly polarized photons on Pb, Au, Sn, Cu, Fe and Ti. The spectra for each target show dependence on the target mass, as well as on the angle between the directions of neutron emission and polarization. The components show angular dependence were extracted from the spectra for each target and compare with the excited levels of residual nuclei. Based on the data, we discuss a plan for further experiments to clearly observe the features of the spectra.
