Abstract
The reactions 9Be(n,3n)7Be and 56Fe(n,p)56Mn were measured between 28 and 68 MeV and at 28 MeV, respectively. These reactions lead to the emission of γ-rays (478, 847, 1811 keV) that may be disturbing in γ-ray astrophysics missions. Consequences regarding the induced background in detectors are drawn.
