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…
Radiative neutron capture cross section of Pu measured at n_TOF-EAR1 in the unresolved resonance region up to 600 keV
J. Lerendegui-Marco, C. Guerrero, E. Mendoza +133
Accurate neutron capture cross sections are essential for the design and operation of fast reactors using MOX fuels. For Pu, the Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) recommends 8--1…
Carrier mobilities and electron-phonon interactions beyond DFT
Aleksandr Poliukhin, Nicola Colonna, Francesco Libbi +2
Electron-phonon coupling is a key interaction that governs diverse physical processes such as carrier transport, superconductivity, and optical absorption. Calculating such interac…
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…
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…
