Abstract
The neutron flux originating from the d + D reaction has been measured at the GENEPI 2 neutron source at LPSC Grenoble. The activation method has been used. The foils activated by neutrons were located at angles ranging from 0 o to 90 o with respect to the deuteron beam direction, allowing to obtain fast and thermal neutron yields within those angles.
