Abstract The cross sections for the reactions N14(n, α)B11 and N14(n, t)C12 have been measured in the neutron energy range 4.0 to 6.4 MeV and at 2.5 MeV. Mono-energetic neutrons were produced in the D(d, n) He3 reaction using a gas target. The (n, α) and (n, t) disintegrations were detected in a gridded ionization chamber filled with an argonnitrogen mixture. The response of the chamber under different operation conditions is described. The excitation functions, measured with a neutron energy resolution of 40 to 50 keV, are given for theα 0 group from the N14(n,α)B11 reaction over the entire neutron energy range and for theα 1 group and the t0 group from N14(n, t) C12 for neutron energies above 4.3 and 5.6 MeV, respectively.
