Abstract

Observations on the yield of neutrons and gamma-rays from carbon bombarded with deuterons of discrete energies between 0.85 and 3.25 Mev are reported. The yield of neutrons per unit solid angle at 0° and 90° is given in absolute terms. Resonances for the formation of the compound nucleus N14 exhibit features such as: varied widths of resonances, shifts in energy between gamma-ray and neutron resonances, exclusion of neutron resonances by gamma-ray resonances and vice versa, and the strong forward asymmetry of the neutron yield.
