La(, ) cross sections constrained with statistical decay properties of La nuclei
Bonginkosi Vincent Kheswa, Mathis Wiedeking, Josh Brown +22
The nuclear level densities and -ray strength functions of La were measured using the La(He, ), La(He, He) and $^{1…
Neutron capture cross section measurement of 238U at the n TOF CERN facility with C6D6 scintillation detectors in the energy region from 1 eV to 700 keV
TOF Collaboration, F. Mingrone, C. Massimi +102
The aim of this work is to provide a precise and accurate measurement of the 238U(n,g) reaction cross section in the energy region from 1 eV to 700 keV. This reaction is of fundame…
Measurement and analysis of the Am-243 neutron capture cross section at the n_TOF facility at CERN
TOF Collaboration, E. Mendoza, D. Cano-Ott +129
Background:The design of new nuclear reactors and transmutation devices requires to reduce the present neutron cross section uncertainties of minor actinides. Purpose: Reduce the $…
Level densities and thermodynamical properties of Pt and Au isotopes
F. Giacoppo, F. L. Bello Garrote, L. A. Bernstein +15
The nuclear level densities of Pt and Au below the neutron separation energy have been measured using transfer and scattering reactions. All the level densi…
Observation of double pygmy resonances in Pt and enhanced astrophysical reaction rates
F. Giacoppo, F. L. Bello Garrote, T. K. Eriksen +12
Our measurements of Pt -strength functions show a double-humped enhancement in the MeV region. For the first time, the detailed shape of these resonances…
Experimental neutron capture data of Ni from the CERN n_TOF facility
TOF collaboration, P. Žugec, M. Barbagallo +99
The Ni cross section has been measured at the neutron time of flight facility n_TOF at CERN, in the energy range from 27 meV up to 400 keV. In total, 51 resonances h…
Neutron-skin thickness of Pb, and symmetry-energy constraints from the study of the anti-analog giant dipole resonance
A. Krasznahorkay, M. Csatlós, L. Csige +12
The Pb(,) Pb reaction at a beam energy of 30 MeV has been used to excite the anti-analog of the giant dipole resonance (AGDR) and to measure its -de…
Improved Pt() and Ir() astrophysical reactions rates
P. E. Koehler, K. H. Guber
Pt is produced solely by the slow neutron capture (\textit{s}) nucleosynthesis process and hence an accurate (,) reaction rate for this nuclide would allow its use as…
Neutron Resonance Data Exclude Random Matrix Theory
P. E. Koehler, F. Bečvář, M. Krtička +2
Almost since the time it was formulated, the overwhelming consensus has been that random matrix theory (RMT) is in excellent agreement with neutron resonance data. However, over th…
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…
Anomalous fluctuations of s-wave reduced neutron widths of Pt resonances
P. E. Koehler, F. Bečvář, M. Krtička +2
We obtained an unprecedentedly large number of s-wave neutron widths through R-matrix analysis of neutron cross-section measurements on enriched Pt samples. Careful analysis of the…
Non-Statistical Effects in Neutron Capture
P. E. Koehler, T. A. Bredeweg, K. H. Guber +8
There have been many reports of non-statistical effects in neutron-capture measurements. However, reports of deviations of reduced-neutron-width distributions from the expected Por…
Spin measurements for 147Sm+n resonances: Further evidence for non-statistical effects
P. E. Koehler, J. L. Ullmann, T. A. Bredeweg +5
We have determined the spins J of resonances in the 147Sm(n,gamma) reaction by measuring multiplicities of gamma-ray cascades following neutron capture. Using this technique, we we…
