Abstract:
The light fragment production reactions for 10 MeV to 3 GeV protons incident on O-16, Al-27, Fe, Nb-93, and Ag are analyzed by a combination of an intranuclear cascade model and a generalized evaporation model which includes light nuclei up to Mg as ejectiles. It is concluded that evaporation is the dominant process by which particles lighter than or equal to Be are produced from targets heavier than O.
