Abstract :
With increasing multi-purpose use of high-energy heavy-ion accelerators, secondary particle production and transport by high-energy heavy ions is a topic of current interest. This overview gives a brief summary on the experimental results on double differential neutron production cross-section data (DDX), thick target neutron production yield data (TTY), heavy-ion produced neutron transport data, and spallation products production cross-section data for heavy ions of energies above about 100 MeV/nucleon.
