Abstract
Two new photoneutron targets have been developed for neutron time-of-flight experiments, the axial water-moderated target (AWMT) and the bare bounce target (BBT). These targets operate without any lead shielding nearby and both have superior neutron resolution compared to the older bounce target. The BBT has been selected over the AWMT for general time-of-flight measurements because it exhibited lower neutron background in the keV energy region.
