Double-differential neutron production cross sections (DDXs) for 200-MeV deuteron induced reactions on Li, Be, C, Al, Cu, Nb, In, Ta, and Au were measured at forward emission angles ranging from 0° to 25° by means of a time of flight (TOF) method with EJ301 liquid organic scintillators. The measured DDXs were compared with JENDL-5 and TENDL-2021 nuclear data, and theoretical model calculations using DEURACS and PHITS codes. It was found that the JENDL-5 and DEURACS calculation are in better agreement with the measured DDXs than the PHITS calculation, while TENDL-2021 fails to reproduce both the spectral shape and magnitude of the measured DDXs for all the targets.

Double-differential neutron production cross sections (DDXs) for deuteron-induced reactions on Li at 200 MeV were measured for emission angles ranging from 0◦ to 25◦ in steps of 5◦ by means of a time of flight (TOF) method with EJ301 liquid organic scintillators at the Research Center for Nuclear Physics (RCNP), Osaka University. The measured DDXs were compared to theoretical model calculations with the DEURACS and PHITS codes and TENDL-2017 nuclear data. It was found that the DEURACS calculation is in better agreement with the measured DDXs than the PHITS calculation, while TENDL-2017 fails to reproduce both the spectral shape and magnitude of the measured DDXs for all angles.

Double-differential cross sections (DDXs) of deuteron-induced neutron production reactions on Li, Be, and C at 102 MeV were measured at forward angles (≤ 25 ∘ ) by means of a time of flight method with NE213 liquid organic scintillators at the Research Center of Nuclear Physics, Osaka University. The experimental results were compared with model calculations with PHITS and DEURACS. The DEURACS calculation reproduces the experimental DDXs for C at very forward angles than the PHITS one. Moreover, the incident energy dependence of the Li(d,xn) reaction was investigated by adding the DDX data measured previously at 25 and 40 MeV.
