Abstract

Double differential cross-section values for the (p, α) reaction on natural lithium were determined for incident proton energies between 20 MeV and 25 MeV at emission angles between 15° and 55°. A distinct peak corresponding to high-energy α particles was observed in the spectra and the integrated differential cross-section over this peak was evaluated. This cross-section exhibits an angular dependence with a maximum around 45°, as well as an energy dependence where lower proton beam energies result in higher cross-section values. Our results are in good agreement with previous experimental data reported in the literature.
