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…

Measurement of the cross-section at the CERN n\_TOF facility from subthermal energy to 120 keV

Marco Antonio Martínez-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…

Charge radii of neutron-rich scandium isotopes and the seniority symmetry in the shell

S. W. Bai, X. F. Yang, Á. Koszorús +30

Nuclear charge radii of neutron-rich Sc isotopes were measured using collinear laser spectroscopy at CERN-ISOLDE. The new data reveal that the charge radii of scandium is…

Electromagnetic Properties of Indium Isotopes Elucidate the Doubly Magic Character of Sn

J. Karthein, C. M. Ricketts, R. F. Garcia Ruiz +24

Our understanding of nuclear properties in the vicinity of Sn, suggested to be the heaviest doubly magic nucleus with equal numbers of protons (Z=50) and neutrons (N=50), h…
