Towards a new generation of solid total-energy detectors for neutron-capture time-of-flight experiments with intense neutron beams

J. Balibrea-Correa, V. Babiano-Suarez, J. Lerendegui-Marco +134

Challenging neutron-capture cross-section measurements of small cross sections and samples with a very limited number of atoms require high-flux time-of-flight facilities. In turn,…

Towards Real Time Compton Imaging in Demanding Conditions

Bernardo Gameiro, Jorge Lerendegui-Marco, Victor Babiano-Suarez +5

Compton cameras are radiation detectors that provide spatial information on the origin of the γ-ray sources based on the Compton scattering effect. Many applications require these…

The CERN n TOF NEAR station for astrophysics- and application-related neutron activation measurements

N. Patronis, A. Mengoni, N. Colonna +130

A new experimental area, the NEAR station, has recently been built at the CERN n TOF facility, at a short distance from the spallation target (1.5 m). The new area, characterized b…

Review and new concepts for neutron-capture measurements of astrophysical interest

C. Domingo-Pardo, V. Babiano-Suarez, J. Balibrea-Correa +128

The idea of slow-neutron capture nucleosynthesis formulated in 1957 triggered a tremendous experimental effort in different laboratories worldwide to measure the relevant nuclear p…
