Be 7 (n,α) He 4 Reaction and the Cosmological Lithium Problem : Measurement of the Cross Section in a Wide Energy Range at n-TOF at CERN
(2016-10-03)
The energy-dependent cross section of the Be7(n,α)He4 reaction, of interest for the so-called cosmological lithium problem in big bang nucleosynthesis, has been measured for the first time from 10 meV to 10 keV neutron ...
Measurement and analysis of the Am 241 (n, γ) cross section with liquid scintillator detectors using time-of-flight spectroscopy at the n-TOF facility at CERN
(2014-04-23)
The Am241(n,γ) cross section has been measured at the n-TOF facility at CERN using deuterated benzene liquid scintillators, commonly known as C6D6 detectors, and time-of-flight spectrometry. The results in the resolved ...
A new CVD diamond mosaic-detector for (n, α) cross-section measurements at the n_TOF experiment at CERN
(2013-12-21)
At the n_TOF experiment at CERN a dedicated single-crystal chemical vapor deposition (sCVD) Diamond Mosaic-Detector has been developed for (n,α) cross-section measurements. The detector, characterized by an excellent time ...
High-accuracy determination of the neutron flux at n_TOF
(2013-12-18)
The neutron flux of the n_TOF facility at CERN was measured, after installation of the new spallation target, with four different systems based on three neutron-converting reactions, which represent accepted cross sections ...
Performance of the neutron time-of-flight facility n_TOF at CERN
(2013-02)
The neutron time-of-flight facility n_TOF features a white neutron source produced by spallation through 20 GeV/c protons impinging on a lead target. The facility, aiming primarily at the measurement of neutron-induced ...
