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…

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…

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…
