New stellar (n,gamma) cross sections and the "Karlsruhe Astrophysical Database of Nucleosynthesis in Stars"
(EDP Sciences, 2008)
Since April 2005 a regularly updated stellar neutron cross section compilation is available online at http://nuclear-astrophysics.fzk.de/kadonis. This online-database is called the "Karlsruhe Astrophysical Database of ...
The neutron capture cross sections of (237)Np(n,gamma) and (240)Pu(n,gamma) and its relevance in the transmutation of nuclear waste
(EDP Sciences, 2008)
Neutron capture cross sections of actinides are of great relevance for the Transmutation of Nuclear Waste in Accelerator Driven Systems (ADS) and Generation-IV reactors. The neutron capture cross sections of (237)Np and ...
Measurement of neutron induced fission of (235)U, (233)U and (245)Cm with the FIC detector at the CERN n_TOF facility
(EDP Sciences, 2008)
A series of measurements of neutron induced fission cross section of various TRU isotopes have been performed at the CERN n_TOF spallation neutron facility, in the energy range from thermal to nearly 250 MeV. The experimental ...
Nuclear physics for the Re/Os clock
(2008-01)
Dating the age of the universe by the beta-decay of (187)Re (t(1/2) = 41.2 Gyr) requires the accurate assessment of the s-process reaction flow. The daughter nucleus (187)Os as well as its immediate s-only neighbor (186)Os ...
The measurement of the (206)Pb(n,gamma) cross section and stellar implications
(2008-01)
The neutron capture cross section of (206)Pb has been measured at the CERN n_TOF spectrometer using a setup of two C(6)D(6) detectors. In the energy interval from 1 eV to 600 keV the cross section is dominated by resonances, ...
Capture cross section measurements of (186,187,188)Os at n_TOF : the resolved resonance region
(EDP Sciences, 2008)
The neutron capture cross sections of (186,187,188)Os have been measured at the CERN neutron time-of-flight facility, n_TOF, in the neutron energy range from 1 eV up to 1 MeV. In this contribution, we report the results ...
