How to Build a Machine to Produce Low-Energy Protons and Deuterons
by C. L. Stong
August, 1971
ALTHOUGH radioactive materials for experimental use can be bought in small amounts without a license, some amateurs have made their own with an apparatus that generates a beam of protons. The protons react with the atomic nuclei in a target to liberate neutrons. The neutrons in turn react with the nuclei
in another substance, giving rise to a radioactive isotope.
