Measurement of the radiative neutron capture cross section of Pb-206 and its astrophysical implications
(2007-10)
The (n,gamma) cross section of Pb-206 has been measured at the CERN n_TOF facility with high resolution in the energy range from 1 eV to 620 keV by using two optimized C6D6 detectors. In the investigated energy interval ...
Status and outlook of the neutron time-of-flight facility
(2007-08)
The neutron time-of-flight facility n_TOF at CERN, fully operational since 2002, combines a high instantaneous neutron flux with high energy resolution. The wide energy range and the high neutron flux per time-of-flight ...
Neutron reactions and nuclear cosmo-chronology
(Elsevier, 2007-07)
The beta-decay of Re-187 (t(1/2) = 42.3 Gyr) represents a suited cosmo-chronometer for the age of the r-process abundances, since the radiogenic part of the daughter isotope (OS)-O-187 is defined by the difference between ...
The La-139(n,gamma) cross section : Key for the onset of the s-process
(2007-03)
The nuclear resonance parameters and the capture cross section of the neutron magic isotope La-139 have been measured relative to Au-197 in the energy range of 0.6 eV to 9 keV at the neutron time-of-flight (n_TOF) facility ...
Measurement of the neutron induced fission cross section on transuranic (TRU) elements at the n_TOF facility at CERN
(American Institute of Physics (AIP), 2007)
During the 2004 campaign, the n_TOF collaboration measured neutron fission cross sections for U-233, Am-241,Am-243, Cm-245, as well as the fission standards U-235.238, using a sealed Fission Ionization Chamber (FIC). The ...
Measurement of the neutron capture cross section of the s-only isotope Pb-204 from 1 eV to 440 keV
(2007-01)
The neutron capture cross section of Pb-204 has been measured at the CERN n_TOF installation with high resolution in the energy range from 1 eV to 440 keV. An R-matrix analysis of the resolved resonance region, between 1 ...
Resonance capture cross section of Pb-207
(2006-11)
The radiative neutron capture cross section of Pb-207 has been measured at the CERN neutron time of flight installation n_TOF using the pulse height weighting technique in the resolved energy region. The measurement has ...
New measurement of neutron capture resonances in Bi-209
(2006-08)
The neutron capture cross section of Bi-209 has been measured at the CERN n_TOF facility by employing the pulse-height-weighting technique. Improvements over previous measurements are mainly because of an optimized detection ...
Neutron capture cross section of Th-232 measured at the n_TOF facility at CERN in the unresolved resonance region up to 1 MeV
(2006-05)
We have measured the neutron capture reaction yield of Th-232 at the neutron time-of-flight facility n_TOF at CERN in the energy range from 1 eV to 1 MeV. The average capture cross section has been extracted in the energy ...
Measurement of La-139(n, gamma) cross section
(American Institute of Physics (AIP), 2006)
We measured the neutron capture cross section of La-139 relative to Au-197 in the energy range of 0.6 cV to 9 keV at n_TOF, the neutron time-of-flight facility at CERN. After a description of the experimental apparatus, ...
