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,…
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…
Imaging neutron capture cross sections: i-TED proof-of-concept and future prospects based on Machine-Learning techniques
V. Babiano-Suárez, J. Lerendegui-Marco, J. Balibrea-Correa +132
i-TED is an innovative detection system which exploits Compton imaging techniques to achieve a superior signal-to-background ratio in () cross-section measurements using time-…
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…
