The energy sum of back-to-back np- and nn- pairs are approximately equal to the Q-values(~150MeV) of the NMWD. N nN process were clearly identified !! • We got n/p ratio of 12C at cos <-0.8 and EN>30MeV . n/p ~ Nnn/Nnp ~ 0.40 ±0.09(statis. ) (Preliminary!! ) (expected systematic error ~ ±0.04) Consistent with recent theoretical calculations !!!! → θ
