Resumo

A facility for studies of neutron-induced reactions has been built at the upgraded Gustaf Werner cyclotron of the The Svedberg Laboratory, Uppsala, Sweden. Well-collimated, monoenergetic neutron beams are produced with a fairly long distance between the neutron source and the reaction target, to reduce background radiation. A magnetic spectrometer with large angular and momentum acceptance has been constructed to allow measurements of energy and angular distributions of light ions produced in neutron-induced reactions. Initially, studies will be undertaken of isovector monopole and Gamow-Teller resonances, induced by the (n,p) reaction in various nuclei. The performance is illustrated in a measurement of the doubly differential cross section of the 12C(n,p)12B reaction at 100 MeV.
