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,…
