SINBAD ABSTRACT NEA-1552/32

CERN 200 and 400 GeV/c protons activation experiments (1983)



 1. Name of Experiment:
    ------------------
    Measurements of the dose and hadron yield from copper targets in 200 GeV/c and
    400 GeV/c extracted proton beams (1983)


 2. Purpose and Phenomena Tested:
    ----------------------------
    Standard activation and dosimetric techniques were used to measure the angular
    variation of hadron flux density and absorbed dose around copper targets irradiated
    by high-energy protons. The reports include the compilation of the results of the
    measurements obtained during four irradiations at proton energies between 195 and
    400 GeV.

 4. Note:
    -----
    Two reports on the experiments were kindly contributed by Alberto Fasso' and Markus Brugger.
    The compilation and review are still to be carried out. Contributions would be highly appreciated.
