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…
Neutron-induced cross sections -- from raw data to astrophysical rates
René Reifarth, Philipp Erbacher, Stefan Fiebiger +13
Neutron capture cross sections are one of the most important nuclear inputs to models of stellar nucleosynthesis of the elements heavier than iron. The activation technique and the…
The Be()Li reaction and the Cosmological Lithium Problem: measurement of the cross section in a wide energy range at n_TOF (CERN)
L. Damone, M. Barbagallo, M. Mastromarco +155
We report on the measurement of the Be()Li cross section from thermal to approximately 325 keV neutron energy, performed in the high-flux experimental area (EAR2)…
Neutron capture cross section measurement of 238U at the n TOF CERN facility with C6D6 scintillation detectors in the energy region from 1 eV to 700 keV
TOF Collaboration, F. Mingrone, C. Massimi +102
The aim of this work is to provide a precise and accurate measurement of the 238U(n,g) reaction cross section in the energy region from 1 eV to 700 keV. This reaction is of fundame…
Behavior of a trapezoid-based data acquisition system up to 100 kHz and beyond
Stefan Schmidt, Tanja Heftrich, Jan Glorius +8
In this work, we investigated the ability of a high-purity germanium detector connected to a trapezoid-filter-based data acquisition system to reliably record signals in spite of h…
Integral measurement of the C(n,p)B reaction up to 10 GeV
P. Žugec, N. Colonna, D. Bosnar +102
The integral measurement of the C(n,p)B reaction was performed at the neutron time of flight facility n_TOF at CERN. The total number of B nuclei produced per…
Sensitivity study for s process nucleosynthesis in AGB stars
A. Koloczek, B. Thomas, J. Glorius +6
In this paper we present a large-scale sensitivity study of reaction rates in the main component of the process. The aim of this study is to identify all rates, which have a gl…
The thermal neutron capture cross section of the radioactive isotope Fe
T. Heftrich, M. Bichler, R. Dressler +20
50% of the heavy element abundances are produced via slow neutron capture reactions in different stellar scenarios. The underlying nucleosynthesis models need the input of neutron…
High accuracy determination of the U/U fission cross section ratio up to 1 GeV at n_TOF (CERN)
