Unfolding procedure for SER measurements using quasi-monoenergetic neutrons

This work presents an unfolding algorithm for SER measurements using quasi-monoenergetic neutrons. The purpose of the algorithm is to correct SER results for the contribution of the low-energy tail in the neutron spectrum. Experimentally measured neutron spectra from the /sup 7/Li(p,n) reaction are used for the first time in this algorithm. Corrected SER results are compared with measurements at two atmospheric-like spectrum neutron sources.
