Evaluation of Kr Cross Sections For Use in Fusion Diagnostics

M. Vorabbi, G. P. A. Nobre, D. A. Brown +3

The National Ignition Facility at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory uses Kr as a diagnostic tool to measure the neutron flux produced by fusion reactions. As krypton is…

Newly Evaluated Neutron Reaction Data on Chromium Isotopes

G. P. A. Nobre, M. T. Pigni, D. A. Brown +10

Neutron reaction data for the set of major chromium isotopes were reevaluated from the thermal energy range up to 20 MeV. In the low energy region, updates to the thermal values to…

Full Band All-sky Search for Periodic Gravitational Waves in the O1 LIGO Data

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1099

We report on a new all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency band 475-2000 Hz and with a frequency time derivative in the range of [-1.0e-8, +1e-9] Hz/s. Pot…
