The spin-flip probability S(θ) in the inelastic scattering of unpolarized 15.0-MeV neutrons to the first 2+ state in 12C has been determined at θ = 140° (lab.) by measuring the scattered neutrons in coincidence with the subsequent 4.44- MeV deexcitation γ-rays emitted normal to the scattering plane. Time-of-flight technique with carbon recoil detection in a plastic scintillator has been used. The neutron spin-flip probability is S = 0.21±0.06.

In continuation of our earlier experiments studying the emission of solar neutrons, we have now developed detector systems which respond to γ rays of energy 1–5 MeV and neutrons of energy [Formula: see text]. The two detectors are almost identical. Each consists of a CsI (Na) crystal (B) of diameter 3.8 cm, completely enclosed in a tapered cylinder of plastic scintillator (A) operated in anticoincidence; the crystals have thicknesses of 2.4 and 1.2 cm respectively. A balloon carrying these detectors was flown on March 16, 1967 over Hyderabad, India (vertical cutoff rigidity 16.9 GV) and floated at a ceiling altitude of 6.0 mb for 1 hour. In addition to γ-ray and neutron events (AB), events A and AB were also continuously monitored throughout the flight. Pulses corresponding to 1–5 MeV in the 2.4-cm crystal (γ rays) and 6–40 MeV in the 1.2-cm crystal (high-energy neutrons) were analyzed by a 64-channel pulse-height analyzer. On the basis of the pulse-height distributions and γ-ray efficiencies in the two crystals, we attribute events of 1–5 MeV energy from the thicker crystal to γ rays and those > 10 MeV in energy from the thinner one to stars produced by high-energy neutrons [Formula: see text] in the crystal. Atmospheric growth curves for γ rays and neutrons have been obtained; these growth curves as well as those for events A and AB show the normal features of the Pfotzer maximum, steady decreases up to the ceiling altitude, and a constant counting rate at ceiling. The atmospheric counting rates at ceiling altitude give for γ rays of energy 1–5 MeV a flux of ~1 photon per cm2 s and for neutrons of energy [Formula: see text] a flux of ~0.1 neutron per cm2 s. No evidence for a solar component in either channel was found.

The 90° differential cross section of the 11B(d,γ0)13C reaction has been measured at deuteron energies from 1.95 to 12.0 MeV in steps varying from 100 to 200 keV. The γ-rays have been detected by a 23 cm long × 23 cm diameter NaI(Tl) crystal spectrometer enclosed in a plastic scintillator anticoincidence shield. The yield curve shows a resonant structure at the energies Eexe = 20.4 ± 0.1 and 22.0 ± 0.2 MeV.
