Abstract

The regularities of backscattering of 7.7-MeV protons from nuclei are used to quantitatively determine the hydrogen concentration in materials by the example of hydrated titanium and zirconium samples. The results obtained by the nondestructive method are in good agreement with the data of chemical analysis by a destructive method.
