Abstract
Hydrogen kerma factors and their uncertainties are deduced on an experimental basis, starting from our previously measured differential cross sections completed with available data from the literature, in the incident neutron energy range 25 to 75 MeV. The deduced experimental kerma factors are compared with theoretical predictions. A simple to use parametrization of the hydrogen kerma factor values in the incident neutron energy range 0.3 to 100 MeV is also proposed.
