Abstract
In this work, the intense deuteron beam from a plasma focus device is investigated by the activation yield-ratio technique. It is shown that boron-carbide (B4C) and boron-nitride (BN) are complimentary targets for high energy deuteron beam studies. For deuteron spectra of the form dNd/dE∝E−n, when deuteron spectra decrease relatively gradually (n<6) BN is a better choice, while for the case of very rapidly decreasing deuteron spectra (n>6), B4C is more suitable.
