Nuclear data activities at the n TOF facility at CERN
(EDP Sciences: EPJ, 2016-10-21)
Nuclear data in general, and neutron-induced reaction cross sections in particular, are important for a wide variety of research fields. They play a key role in the safety and criticality assessment of nuclear technology, ...

Measurement and resonance analysis of the 33S(n,α) 30Si cross section at the CERN n_TOF facility in the energy region from 10 to 300 keV
(American Physical Society, 2018-06-04)
The 33S(n,α) 30Si cross section has been measured at the neutron time-of-flight (n_TOF) facility at CERN in the neutron energy range from 10 to 300 keV relative to the 10B(n,α) 7 Li cross-section standard. Both reactions ...

Measurement and analysis of 155,157Gd(n,γ) from thermal energy to 1 keV
(EDP Sciences, 2020)
We have measured the capture cross section of the 155Gd and 157Gd isotopes between 0.025 eV and 1 keV. The capture events were recorded by an array of 4 C6D6 detectors, and the capture yield was deduced exploiting the total ...

Preliminary results on the 233U α-ratio measurement at n_TOF
(EDP Sciences, 2020)
233U is the fissile nuclei in the Th-U fuel cycle with a particularily small neutron capture cross setion which is on average about one order of magnitude lower than its fission cross section. Hence, the measurement of the ...

Accurate measurement of the standard 235U(n,f) cross section from thermal to 170 keV neutron energy
(EDP Sciences, 2020)
An accurate measurement of the 235U(n,f) cross section from thermal to 170 keV of neutron energy has recently been performed at n_TOF facility at CERN using 6Li(n,t)4He and 10B(n,α)7Li as references. This measurement has ...

Study of photon strength functions of 241Pu and 245Cm from neutron capture measurements
(EDP Sciences, 2020)
We have measured the γ-rays following neutron capture on 240Pu and 244 Cm at the n_TOF facility at CERN with the Total Absorption Calorimeter (TAC) and with C6D6 organic scintillators. The TAC is made of 40 BaF2 crystals ...

Monte Carlo simulations and n-p differential scattering data measured with Proton Recoil Telescopes
(EDP Sciences, 2020)
The neutron-induced fission cross section of 235U, a standard at thermal energy and between 0.15 MeV and 200 MeV, plays a crucial role in nuclear technology applications. The long-standing need of improving cross section ...

Investigation of the 240Pu(n, f ) reaction at the n_TOF/EAR2 facility in the 9 meV–6 MeV range
(American Physical Society, 2020)
Background: Nuclear waste management is considered amongst the major challenges in the field of nuclear energy. A possible means of addressing this issue is waste transmutation in advanced nuclear systems, whose operation ...
