Design and commissioning of the miniBELEN neutron counter for the study of reactions
Nil Mont-Geli, Ariel Tarifeño-Saldivia, Max Pallàs +27
The miniBELEN detector is a moderated neutron counter based on the use of He tubes and high-density polyethylene as moderator. The detector has been designed to have a neutron…
Towards a new generation of solid total-energy detectors for neutron-capture time-of-flight experiments with intense neutron beams
J. Balibrea-Correa, V. Babiano-Suarez, J. Lerendegui-Marco +134
Challenging neutron-capture cross-section measurements of small cross sections and samples with a very limited number of atoms require high-flux time-of-flight facilities. In turn,…
Pushing the high count rate limits of scintillation detectors for challenging neutron-capture experiments
J. Balibrea Correa, J. Lerendegui-Marco, V. Babiano-Suarez +131
One of the critical aspects for the accurate determination of neutron capture cross sections when combining time-of-flight and total energy detector techniques is the characterizat…
The CERN n TOF NEAR station for astrophysics- and application-related neutron activation measurements
N. Patronis, A. Mengoni, N. Colonna +130
A new experimental area, the NEAR station, has recently been built at the CERN n TOF facility, at a short distance from the spallation target (1.5 m). The new area, characterized b…
Review and new concepts for neutron-capture measurements of astrophysical interest
C. Domingo-Pardo, V. Babiano-Suarez, J. Balibrea-Correa +128
The idea of slow-neutron capture nucleosynthesis formulated in 1957 triggered a tremendous experimental effort in different laboratories worldwide to measure the relevant nuclear p…
Experimental setup and procedure for the measurement of the 7Be(n,α)α reaction at n_TOF
L. Cosentino, A. Musumarra, M. Barbagallo +129
The newly built second experimental area EAR2 of the n_TOF spallation neutron source at CERN allows to perform (n, charged particles) experiments on short-lived highly radioactive…
