Abstract
The thin target yield of neutrons from the D+D reaction has been measured for deuteron energies 0.5-1.8 Mev. The neutron yield in the forward direction increases smoothly throughout the interval, but the yield at 80° to the bombarding beam remains almost constant. Values of in the expression () representing the angular distribution of the neutrons in the c.g. system are calculated from the yield data and plotted as a function of voltage. is found to increase from 1.8 at 0.5 Mev deuteron energy to 3.4 at 1.8 Mev.
