Abstract
Double-differential cross sections for fast neutron induced triton and alpha-particle
production on oxygen, are reported at seven incident neutron energies between 30 and 65 MeV. Angular
distributions were measured at laboratory angles between 20 and 160
.Energy-differential, angle-differential and total cross sections are reported. Experimental cross
sections are compared with existing experimental data and with theoretical model calculations.
