Abstract

The 14 MeV neutron generator NGM-18 was used as neutron source. The spectra were measured by using stilben one-crystal spectrometer and Boner ball spectrometer. The sample thickness equal 10, 35, 50 sm for Fe and 16, 40 sm for Pb. Distance between neutron source and detector was 3 m or less. The systematic errors equal 20% for neutron energy less 0.2 MeV, 5-10% for neutron energy above 0.2 MeV and 15-20% for gamma-quants. The statistical errors and errors caused by monitor equal 3-5%. The data obtained are recommended for neutron data libraries verification.
