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…
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…
Direct Experiments of Neutron Capture on Stable and Unstable Isotopes for Stellar Nucleosynthesis Studies
Jorge Lerendegui-Marco, Javier Balibrea-Correa, Victor Babiano-Suárez +7
Neutron-capture reactions provide essential nuclear-physics input for modeling the synthesis of heavy elements in stars. The growing precision of stellar spectroscopy and isotopic…
Measurement of the cross-section at the CERN n\_TOF facility from subthermal energy to 120 keV
Marco Antonio MartÃnez-Cañadas, Pablo Torres-Sánchez, Javier Praena +130
Background: The reaction is of special interest in three different applications. First, in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy due to the presence of in b…
Measurement of the C(n,p) and C(n,d) reactions from n_TOF at CERN
P. Žugec, N. Colonna, D. Rochman +129
The energy dependence of the cross section of the (n,p) and (n,d) reactions on C has been studied for the first time at the n_TOF facility at CERN, from the particle d…
Imaging neutrons with a position-sensitive monolithic CLYC detector
J. Lerendegui-Marco, G. Cisterna, J. Hallam +9
In this work, we have developed and characterized a position-sensitive CLYC detector that acts as the neutron imaging layer and -ray Compton scatterer of the novel dual \g-ray…
