High accuracy 235U(n,f) data in the resonance energy region
(EDP Sciences, 2016-03-15)
The 235U neutron-induced cross section is widely used as reference cross section for measuring other fission cross sections, but in the resonance region it is not considered as an IAEA standard because of the scarce ...
Measurement and analysis of the Am 243 neutron capture cross section at the n-TOF facility at CERN
(2014-09-11)
Background: The design of new nuclear reactors and transmutation devices requires to reduce the present neutron cross section uncertainties of minor actinides. Purpose: Improvement of the Am243(n,γ) cross section uncertainty. ...
Neutron-induced fission cross section of U 234 measured at the CERN n-TOF facility
(2014-04-15)
The neutron-induced fission cross section of U234 has been measured at the CERN n-TOF facility relative to the standard fission cross section of U235 from 20 keV to 1.4 MeV and of U238 from 1.4 to 200 MeV. A fast ionization ...
Measurement of the neutron-induced fission cross-section of Am-241 at the time-of-flight facility n_TOF
(2013)
The neutron-induced fission cross-section of Am-241 has been measured relative to the standard fission cross-section of U-235 between 0.5 and 20 MeV. The experiment was performed at the CERN n_TOF facility. Fission fragments ...
Neutron-induced fission cross section measurement of U-233, Am-241 and Am-243 in the energy range 0.5 MeV
(2012-10)
Neutron-induced fission cross section measurements of U-233, Am-243 and Am-241 relative to U-235 have been carried out at the neutron time-of-flight facility n_TOF at CERN. A fast ionization chamber has been employed. All ...
Measurement of resolved resonances of Th-232(n, gamma) at the n_TOF facility at CERN
(2012-06-01)
The yield of the neutron capture reaction Th-232(n, gamma) has been measured at the neutron time-of-flight facility n_TOF at CERN in the energy range from 1 eV to 1 MeV. The reduction of the acquired data to the capture ...
Measurement and resonance analysis of the Np-237 neutron capture cross section
(2012-04-20)
The neutron capture cross section of Np-237 was measured between 0.7 and 500 eV at the CERN n_TOF facility using the 4 pi BaF2 Total Absorption Calorimeter. The experimental capture yield was extracted minimizing all the ...
Resonance neutron-capture cross sections of stable magnesium isotopes and their astrophysical implications
(2012-04-20)
We have measured the neutron capture cross sections of the stable magnesium isotopes Mg-24,Mg-25,Mg-26 in the energy range of interest to the s process using the neutron time-of-flight facility n_TOF at CERN. Capture events ...
Neutron-induced fission cross section of Cm-245 : New results from data taken at the time-of-flight facility n_TOF
(2012-03-29)
The neutron-induced fission cross section of Cm-245 was measured at n_TOF in a wide energy range and with high resolution. The energy dependence, measured in a single measurement from 30 meV to 1 MeV neutron energy, has ...
Measurement of the neutron-induced fission cross-section of Am-243 relative to U-235 from 0.5 to 20 MeV
(2011-12)
The ratio of the neutron-induced fission cross-sections of Am-243 and U-235 was measured in the energy range from 0.5 to 20 MeV with uncertainties of approximate to 4%. The experiment was performed at the CERN n_TOF facility ...
