(2014-05-31)
.Neutron induced capture cross section on 236U has been measured with high accuracy and high resolution at n_TOF, in order to improve data libraries needed for the development of advancednuclear reactors. Preliminary results ...
The CERN n_TOF Facility: Neutron beams performances for cross section measurements
(2014-05-01)
This paper presents the characteristics of the existing CERN n TOF neutron beam facility (n TOF-EAR1 with a flight path of 185 meters) and the future one (n_TOF EAR-2 with a flight path of 19 meters), which will operate ...
Measurement of the 242Pu(n,f) cross section at the CERN n_TOF facility
(2014-05-01)
The accurate knowledge of relevant nuclear data is crucial for the design of advanced nuclear systems. These data include neutron cross sections of various plutonium isotopes and other minor actinides. The 242Pu(n,f) cross ...
Measurements of neutron cross sections for advanced nuclear energy systems at n-TOF (CERN)
(2014-04-14)
The n-TOF facility operates at CERN with the aim of addressing the request of high accuracy nuclear data for advanced nuclear energy systems as well as for nuclear astrophysics. Thanks to the features of the neutron beam, ...
The nucleosynthesis of heavy elements in Stars : The key isotope 25Mg
(2014-04-14)
We have measured the radiative neutron-capture cross section and the total neutron-induced cross section of one of the most important isotopes for the s process, the 25Mg. The measurements have been carried out at the ...
