Measurement of the Sm-151(n,gamma)Sm-152 cross section at n_TOF
(2005-07-25)
The Sm-151(n,gamma) Sm-152 cross section, which is important for the interpretation of the Sm-151 branching as an s-process thermometer, was measured from 1 eV up to 1 MeV at the innovative n-TOF facility at CERN. Based ...
Neutron capture cross section measurements for nuclear astrophysics at CERN n_TOF
(2005-07-25)
A series of neutron capture cross section measurements of interest to nuclear astrophysics have been recently performed at n-TOF, the neutron spallation source operating at CERN. The low repetition frequency of the proton ...
Neutron capture cross sections for the Re/Os clock
(American Institute of Physics (AIP), 2005)
The radioactive decay of (187)Re -> (187)Os (t(1/2) = 43 Gyr) is suited for dating the onset of heavy-element nucleosynthesis. The radiogenic contribution to the (187)Os abundance is the difference between the natural ...
