Abstract

Measurement of differential elastic cross section of protons from aluminum was taken at 165° degree in the 2.4–4.8 MeV energy range. The results and measured energy resonances were compared with reported measurements. These data will improve the reliability of backscattering analysis of Al with protons in this energy region.
