Fluence rates and angular distributions of the neutron emitted by 75 MeV/u 12C-ion bombardment on thick Be and Au targets have been measured by means of the threshold detector activation method. Based on that, the neutron yields, emission rates in the forward direction and neutron dose equivalent rate distributions were deduced.
