Spectra of neutrons from the reactions {sup 6}Li(d,a{alpha}){sup 3}He and {sup 9}Be(d,n){sup 10}B at deuteron energies up to 2.0 MeV

Spectra of neutrons from the reactions {sup 6}Li(d, n{alpha}){sup 3}He and {sup 9}Be(d, n){sup 10}B are measured by the time-of-flight method. Continuous spectra from the first reaction are obtained at deuteron energies E{sub d} = 1.1 and 2.0 MeV for five angles in the range 10{degrees} - 130{degrees}; the energy threshold of neutron detection is found to be 0.2 MeV. Line spectra in the second reaction are measured at E{sub d} = 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 MeV for nine angles in the range 0{degrees} - 165{degrees} for the ground state and the first six excited states of {sup 10}B. Differential and total effective cross sections for neutron production are determined for the two reactions. Special features of the spectra and possible mechanisms of the processes under consideration are discussed. 9 refs., 5 figs., 3 tabs.
