Double-differential cross sections for light-ion production (up to A=4) induced by 96 MeV neutrons have been measured for nat Fe, nat Pb and nat U. The experiments have been performed at the The Svedberg Laboratory in Uppsala, using two independent devices, MEDLEY and SCANDAL. The recorded data cover a wide angular range (20º -160º) with low energy thresholds. The work was performed within the HINDAS collaboration studying three of the most important nuclei for incineration of nuclear waste
