Neutron dose equivalent from 100 MeV 19F projectiles on thick Cu target

Measured neutron doses at different angles from 100 MeV 19F projectiles bombarding a thick copper target are reported. The measurements are carried out at 0∘,30∘,60∘ and 90∘ angles with respect to the incident projectile beam using a commercially available neutron dose equivalent meter. The experimental data are compared with calculated dose from different empirical formulations proposed by earlier workers and also with earlier measured data, obtained with identical experimental conditions for 110 MeV 19F incident on a thick aluminum target.
