Improved Mo neutron resonance parameters from neutron capture and transmission measurements at n_TOF and GELINA

R. Mucciola, S. Cristallo, S. Kopecky +140

We report high-resolution measurements of the cross section in the neutron energy range from a few eV up to about 250 keV, performe…

Surrogate neutron-capture studies with fission detection in inverse kinematics at the ESR storage ring

Bogusław Włoch, Camille Berthelot, Guy Leckenby +39

The NECTAR (Nuclear rEaCTions At storage Rings) experiment at the ESR heavy-ion storage ring at GSI/FAIR Darmstadt is dedicated to surrogate reaction studies of neutron-induced rea…

First Nb() Measurement: Constraining the Nucleosynthetic Origin of Mo in Presolar Grains

J. Balibrea-Correa, J. Lerendegui-Marco, C. Domingo-Pardo +136

Isotopic measurements of presolar silicon carbide grains from dying stars have revealed a puzzling overabundance of Mo that stellar nucleosynthesis models have failed to rep…

Experiments towards a neutron target for measurements in inverse kinematics

S. F. Dellmann, C. M. Harrington, O. R. Cantrell +28

Neutron-induced reactions play an important role in fundamental nuclear physics, nuclear astrophysics, and applications. In the case of reactions on rare isotopes, there are limite…

A prototype neutron-detector array for future deep-underground s-process studies

Thomas Chillery, David Rapagnani, Chemseddine Ananna +12

We report a novel neutron-detection approach employing an EJ-309 liquid scintillator surrounded by six 3He proportional counters. Tests were performed at the FRANZ facility of the…

Neutron capture measurements for s-process nucleosynthesis; A review about CERN n_TOF developments and contributions

C. Domingo-Pardo, O. Aberle, V. Alcayne +143

This article presents a review about the main CERN n\_TOF contributions to the field of neutron-capture experiments of interest for -process nucleosynthesis studies over the las…
