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,…
Riptide: a proton-recoil track imaging detector for fast neutrons
C. Pisanti, A. Berardi, P. Console Camprini +9
Riptide is a detector concept aiming to track fast neutrons. It is based on neutron--proton elastic collisions inside a plastic scintillator, where the neutron momentum can be meas…
Pushing the high count rate limits of scintillation detectors for challenging neutron-capture experiments
J. Balibrea Correa, J. Lerendegui-Marco, V. Babiano-Suarez +131
One of the critical aspects for the accurate determination of neutron capture cross sections when combining time-of-flight and total energy detector techniques is the characterizat…
A detector system for 'absolute' measurements of fission cross sections at n_TOF in the energy range below 200 MeV
E. Pirovano, A. Manna, O. Aberle +14
A new measurement of the U(n,f) cross section was performed at the neutron time-of-flight facility n_TOF at CERN. The experiment focused on neutron energies from 20 MeV to…
A proton-recoil track imaging system for fast neutrons: the RIPTIDE detector
P. Console Camprini, F. Leone, C. Massimi +7
Fast neutron detection is often based on the neutron-proton elastic scattering reaction: the ionization caused by recoil protons in a hydrogenous material constitutes the basic inf…
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…
RIPTIDE: a novel recoil-proton track imaging detector for fast neutrons
Agatino Musumarra, Franco Leone, Cristian Massimi +4
Neutron detectors are an essential tool for the development of many research fields, as nuclear, particle and astroparticle physics as well as radiotherapy and radiation safety. Si…
