Correlations between energy and -ray emission in

Nathan P. Giha, Stefano Marin, James A. Baker +15

We study -ray emission following over an incident neutron energy range of MeV. We present the first experimental evidence for po…

Energy Dependence of Prompt Fission Neutron Multiplicity in the Pu() Reaction

P. Marini, J. Taieb, D. Neudecker +11

Accurate multiplicities of prompt fission neutrons emitted in neutron-induced fission on a large energy range are essential for fundamental and applied nuclear physics. Measuring t…

A new method to reduce the statistical and systematic uncertainty of chance coincidence backgrounds measured with waveform digitizers

J. M. O'Donnell

A new method for measuring chance-coincidence backgrounds during the collection of coincidence data is presented. The method relies on acquiring data with near-zero dead time, whic…

The Ni(n,) cross section measured with DANCE

M. Weigand, T. A. Bredeweg, A. Couture +15

The neutron capture cross section of the s-process branch nucleus Ni affects the abundances of other nuclei in its region, especially Cu and Zn. In order to de…

Neutron-induced gamma-ray production cross sections for the first excited-state transitions in Ne-20 and Ne-22

S. MacMullin, M. Boswell, M. Devlin +8

Background: Neutron-induced reactions are a significant concern for experiments that require extremely low levels of radioactive backgrounds. Measurements of gamma-ray production c…

Partial gamma-ray production cross sections for (n,xng) reactions in natural argon from 1 - 30 MeV

S. MacMullin, M. Boswell, M. Devlin +8

Background: Neutron-induced backgrounds are a significant concern for experiments that require extremely low levels of radioactive backgrounds such as direct dark matter searches a…

Abrupt Change in Radiation-Width Distribution for 147Sm Neutron Resonances

P. E. Koehler, R. Reifarth, J. L. Ullmann +5

We obtained total radiation widths of s-wave resonances through R-matrix analysis of 147Sm(n,gamma) cross-sections. Distributions of these widths differ markedly for resonances bel…

Pion-nucleus elastic scattering on 12C, 40Ca, 90Zr, and 208Pb at 400 and 500 MeV

George Kahrimanis, George Burleson, C. M. Chen +21

Pion-nucleus elastic scattering at energies above the Delta(1232) resonance is studied using both pi+ and pi- beams on 12C, 40Ca, 90Zr, and 208Pb. The present data provide an oppor…

pi+ + d --> p + p reaction between 18 and 44 MeV

E. A. Pasyuk, V. Yu. Alexakhin, S. I. Gogolev +8

A study of the reaction pi+ + d --> p + p has been performed in the energy range of 18 - 44 MeV. Total cross sections and differential cross sections at six angles have been measur…
