Neutron Capture Cross Section of Unstable 63Ni: Implications for Stellar Nucleosynthesis
(American Physical Society, 2013)The 63Niðn; Þ cross section has been measured for the first time at the neutron time-of-flight facility n_TOF at CERN from thermal neutron energies up to 200 keV. In total, capture kernels of 12 (new) resonances were ... -
Angular distribution in the neutron-induced fission of actinides
(EDP Sciences, 2013)Above 1 MeV of incident neutron energy the fission fragment angular distribution (FFAD) has generally a strong anisotropic behavior due to the combination of the incident orbital momentum and the intrinsic spin of the ... -
High-accuracy determination of the neutron flux in the new experimental area n TOF-EAR2 at CERN
(THE EUROPEAN PHYSICAL JOURNAL A, 2013)A new high flux experimental area has recently become operational at the n TOF facility at CERN. This new measuring station, n TOF-EAR2, is placed at the end of a vertical beam line at a distance of approximately 20 m ... -
Neutron research at the N_TOF facility (CERN): Results and perspectives
(AI[P, 2013)In the first ten years of operation, the neutron time-of-flight facility n_TOF at CERN has produced a large body of new and accurate data on neutron capture and fission cross sections, relevant to Nuclear Astrophysics ... -
Performance of the neutron time-of-flight facility n TOF at CERN
(Springlink.com, 2013)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 ... -
MEASUREMENTS OF 4K IN THE HUMAN BODY USING WHOLE BODY COUNTING (WBC) SYSTEM – POSSIBLE RELATIONSHIP OF ENHANCED INTAKE OF RADIOACTIVE 40K WITH BOD
(Bangladesh Journal of Physics, 2013)The aim of this study is to assess the amount of 40K in human tissue and establish the relationship of this amount with subject's height, weight and age using FASTSCAN Whole Body Counter (WBC) which is installed at the ... -
Measurement of the neutron-induced fission cross-section of 241Am at the time-of-flight facility n TOF
(THE EUROPEAN PHYSICAL JOURNAL A, 2013)The neutron-induced fission cross-section of 241Am has been measured relative to the standard fission cross-section of 235U between 0.5 and 20 MeV. The experiment was performed at the CERN n TOF facility. Fission ...
