N2 - Dosimetry cross sections are fundamental quantities for proper determination of the neutron fluences in points of interest under heavy radiation load. One of the critical applications is the Reactor Pressure Vessel aging management, related to the correct estimation of its residual lifetime or for many non-reactor applications including neutron dosimetry of accelerator-based fields or space applications. The neutron flux of neutrons above 12 MeV in reference to fission spectra is below 1%. Therefore, new reference neutron fields with average energy above 5 MeV should be developed for the validation of neutron dosimetry cross sections up to 60 MeV. This paper presents the testing of a new methodology for the use of quasi monoenergetic neutron fields, where different sensitivity allows validations of the dosimetry cross section at energies much higher than the average energy of around 2 MeV typical of fission spectra. The exact shape of the neutron spectrum in the tested fields is measured by stilbene spectrometry. The total flux is determined from Ni and Al flux monitors. The developed methodology was applied to the validation of selected reactions from the IRDFF-II library showing satisfactory agreement.
