Abstract

A procedure for and the results from the energy calibration of a ΔE-E scintillation telescope used in experiments performed at the INR to study the nd-breakup reaction are described. The telescope was calibrated using a beam of α particles with an energy of 30 MeV of the U-120 cyclotron (INP). Secondary protons from the 10,11B(α, p) reaction were recorded by the ΔE-E telescope at several recording angles and with the application of different absorbing foils. The calibration results from the ΔE-E telescope were obtained over the interval E p = 10–30 MeV, allowing us to measure the energies of secondary protons in the ndbreakup reaction when the energy of primary neutrons is 20–60 MeV.
