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…
Characterisation of the neutron beam in the n_TOF-EAR2 experimental area at CERN following the spallation target upgrade
J. A. Pavon-Rodriguez, J. Lerendegui-Marco, A. Manna +16
The n_TOF facility at CERN has undergone a major upgrade after the installation of a new spallation target, designed to improve the features of both neutron beamlines at the experi…
Measurement of the cross-section at the CERN n\_TOF facility from subthermal energy to 120 keV
Marco Antonio MartÃnez-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…
