Measurement of the C(n,p) and C(n,d) reactions from n_TOF at CERN

P. Žugec, N. Colonna, D. Rochman +129

The energy dependence of the cross section of the (n,p) and (n,d) reactions on C has been studied for the first time at the n_TOF facility at CERN, from the particle d…

New insights on fission of U induced by high energy neutrons from a new measurement at CERN n\_TOF

Alice Manna, Elisa Pirovano, the n\_TOF Collaboration

The U(n,f) reaction cross section was measured relative to neutron-proton elastic scattering for the first time in the energy region from 10 MeV to 440 MeV at the CERN n\_T…

Recoil Proton Telescopes and Parallel Plate Avalanche Counters for the U(n,f) cross section measurement relative to H(n,n)H between 10 and 450 MeV neutron energy

A. Manna, E. Pirovano, O. Aberle +23

With the aim of measuring the U(n,f) cross section at the n\_TOF facility at CERN over a wide neutron energy range, a detection system consisting of two fission detectors a…

Study of the 238U(d,p) surrogate reaction via the simultaneous measurement of gamma-decay and fission probabilities

Q. Ducasse, B. Jurado, M. Aïche +26

We investigated the 238U(d,p) reaction as a surrogate for the n + 238U reaction. For this purpose we measured for the first time the gamma-decay and fission probabilities of 239U*…

Experimental level densities of atomic nuclei

M. Guttormsen, M. Aiche, F. L. Bello Garrote +24

It is almost 80 years since Hans Bethe described the level density as a non-interacting gas of protons and neutrons. In all these years, experimental data were interpreted within t…

Scissors resonance in the quasi-continuum of Th, Pa and U isotopes

M. Guttormsen, L. A. Bernstein, A. Görgen +16

The gamma-ray strength function in the quasi-continuum has been measured for 231-233Th, 232,233Pa and 237-239U using the Oslo method. All eight nuclei show a pronounced increase in…

Constant-temperature level densities in the quasi-continuum of Th and U isotopes

M. Guttormsen, B. Jurado, J. N. Wilson +16

Particle-gamma coincidences have been measured to obtain gamma-ray spectra as a function of excitation energy for 231-233Th and 237-239U. The level densities, which were extracted…
