<strong>Neutron</strong>s: Where do they come from?<br />

Measured <strong>Spallation</strong> <strong>Neutron</strong> Yield vs. Proton Energy for<br />

Various Targets, J. Frazer, et al. (1965)<br />

Absolute Global<br />

<strong>Neutron</strong> Yield<br />

Yield (neutrons/proton)<br />

= 0.1(E GeV - 0.12)(A+20),<br />

except fissionable materials;<br />

= 50.(E GeV - 0.12), 238 U.<br />

From Fraser et al., measurements at Brookhaven Cosmotron<br />
