摘要
In this paper, we use the Monte Carlo method to calculate the fluxes of neutrons emitted from targets of different geometry and composition under the action of a low-energy (13 MeV) proton beam. The target is a thin beryllium layer with a thickness of 1-2 mm or a three-dimensional structure including beryllium, copper, and polyethylene. The energy spectra of neutrons are given. A comparison with the calculations of other authors is made.
