Simultaneous measurement of the neutron capture and fission yields of (233)U
(EDP Sciences, 2008)
We have measured the neutron capture and fission cross section of 233 U at the neutron time-of-flight facility n_TOF at CERN in the energy range from 1 eV to 1 MeV with high accuracy by using a high performance 4 pi BaF(2) ...
Improved lead and bismuth (n,gamma) cross sections and their astrophysical impact
(EDP Sciences, 2008)
A series of (n,gamma) neutron capture measurements on the lead isotopes and bismuth have been carried Out at the CERN n_TOF installation in the neutron energy range from 1 eV up to 1 MeV. At n_TOF, contaminations due to ...
p-Process simulations with a modified reaction library
(2008-01)
We have performed p-process simulations with the most recent stellar (n, gamma) cross sections from the Karlsruhe Astrophysical Database of Nucleosynthesis in Stars project (version v0.2, http://nuclear-astrophysics.fzk. ...
The (234)U neutron capture cross section measurement at the n_TOF facility
(EDP Sciences, 2008)
The neutron capture cross-section of (234)U has been measured for energies from thermal up to the keV region in the neutron time-of-flight facility n_TOF, based on a spallation source located at CERN. A 4 pi BaF(2) array ...
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 ...
Crucial inputs to nucleosynthesis calculations
(2008-01)
The first part of the paper discusses nuclear properties relevant to predict compound reactions. The second part addresses direct reactions with special emphasis on direct neutron capture.
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 ...
Astrophysical S-factors and reaction rates of (p,n)-reactions on (117)Sn, (118)Sn, (122)Sn, and (124)Sn
(EDP Sciences, 2008)
Astrophysical S-factors and reaction rates were derived from available cross sections of (p,n)-reactions on (117)Sn, (118)Sn, (122)Sn, and (124)Sn isotopes at incident proton energies up to 9 MeV. The statistical theory ...

(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 ...
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 ...
