Abstract
XXI International Baldin Seminar on High Energy Physics Problems, 2012
The collaboration Energy and Transmutation of Radioactive Waste uses different setups consisting of lead, natural uranium and graphite irradiated by relativistic protons and deuterons to study transmutation of radioactive materials by produced neutrons. The activation samples are used to determine integral of proton or deuteron beams and also produced neutron flux in different places of experimental set-ups. Unfortunately almost no experimental cross-section data for deuterons with GeV energies are available. The similar situation is also for threshold (n,xn) reactions of neutrons with higher energies. Therefore we carried out series of experiments devoted to determination of deuteron reactions on copper during uranium target QUINTA irradiations by deuterons with energies from 1 GeV up to 8 GeV. The cross-sections of various threshold reactions were studied by means ofdifferent quasi-monoenergetic neutron sources with possible energies from 14 MeV up to 100 MeV. Knowledge of such cross-sections is very important for all Accelerator Driven System studies.
