Abstract: Measurements have been made of characteristic gamma rays spectra from A(n,n ′ γ)A reactions induced by 14.1 MeV neutrons on bulk samples of different substances: C, H 2 O, SiO 2 , C 3 H 6 N 6 and samples of soil. Background radiation was reduced by the associated alpha particle technique.
