Cross Sections of Fragments Emitted in Spallation Reactions of Carbon and Nitrogen with 90-MeVαParticles

Abstract
The yield of fragments of mass 6-14 emitted in 90-MeV α-particle interactions with an emulsion of C and N nuclei has been calculated. The experimental cross sections have been fitted with a relation similar to Rudstam's, and an application of the results has been made to the determination of some isotopic ratios.
