  Title Measurement of the C-12(n, p)B-12 cross section at n_TOF at CERN by in-beam activation analysis Type Journal Article
  Year 2014 Publication Physical Review C Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. C  
  Volume (down) 90 Issue 2 Pages 021601 - 5pp  
  Keywords  
  Abstract The integral cross section of the C-12(n, p)B-12 reaction has been determined for the first time in the neutron energy range from threshold to several GeV at the n_TOF facility at CERN. The measurement relies on the activation technique with the beta decay of B-12 measured over a period of four half-lives within the same neutron bunch in which the reaction occurs. The results indicate that model predictions, used in a variety of applications, are mostly inadequate. The value of the integral cross section reported here can be used as a benchmark for verifying or tuning model calculations.

  Title Measurement and analysis of the Am-243 neutron capture cross section at the n_TOF facility at CERN Type Journal Article
  Year 2014 Publication Physical Review C Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. C  
  Volume (down) 90 Issue 3 Pages 034608 - 16pp  
  Keywords  
  Abstract 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 Am-243(n, gamma) cross section uncertainty. Method: The Am-243(n, gamma) cross section has been measured at the n_TOF facility at CERN with a BaF2 total absorption calorimeter, in the energy range between 0.7 eV and 2.5 keV. Results: The Am-243(n, gamma) cross section has been successfully measured in the mentioned energy range. The resolved resonance region has been extended from 250 eV up to 400 eV. In the unresolved resonance region our results are compatible with one of the two incompatible capture data sets available below 2.5 keV. The data available in EXFOR and in the literature have been used to perform a simple analysis above 2.5 keV. Conclusions: The results of this measurement contribute to reduce the Am-243(n, gamma) cross section uncertainty and suggest that this cross section is underestimated up to 25% in the neutron energy range between 50 eV and a few keV in the present evaluated data libraries.

  Title Ni-62(n,gamma) and Ni-63(n,gamma) cross sections measured at the n_TOF facility at CERN Type Journal Article
  Year 2014 Publication Physical Review C Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. C  
  Volume (down) 89 Issue 2 Pages 025810 - 11pp  
  Keywords  
  Abstract The cross section of the Ni-62(n,gamma) reaction was measured with the time-of-flight technique at the neutron time-of-flight facility nTOF at CERN. Capture kernels of 42 resonances were analyzed up to 200 keV neutron energy and Maxwellian averaged cross sections (MACS) from kT = 5-100 keV were calculated. With a total uncertainty of 4.5%, the stellar cross section is in excellent agreement with the the KADoNiS compilation at kT = 30 keV, while being systematically lower up to a factor of 1.6 at higher stellar temperatures. The cross section of the Ni-63(n,gamma) reaction was measured for the first time at nTOF. We determined unresolved cross sections from 10 to 270 keV with a systematic uncertainty of 17%. These results provide fundamental constraints on s-process production of heavier species, especially the production of Cu in massive stars, which serve as the dominant source of Cu in the solar system.

  Title Experimental neutron capture data of Ni-58 from the CERN n_TOF facility Type Journal Article
  Year 2014 Publication Physical Review C Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. C  
  Volume (down) 89 Issue 1 Pages 014605 - 9pp  
  Keywords  
  Abstract The Ni-58(n,gamma) cross section has been measured at the neutron time of flight facility n_TOF at CERN, in the energy range from 27 meV up to 400 keV. In total, 51 resonances have been analyzed up to 122 keV. Maxwellian averaged cross sections (MACS) have been calculated for stellar temperatures of kT = 5-100 keV with uncertainties of less than 6%, showing fair agreement with recent experimental and evaluated data up to kT = 50 keV. The MACS extracted in the present work at 30 keV is 34.2 +/- 0.6(stat) +/- 1.8(sys) mb, in agreement with latest results and evaluations, but 12% lower relative to the recent KADoNIS compilation of astrophysical cross sections. When included in models of the s-process nucleosynthesis in massive stars, this change results in a 60% increase of the abundance of Ni-58, with a negligible propagation on heavier isotopes. The reason is that, using both the old or the new MACS, Ni-58 is efficiently depleted by neutron captures.

  Title Measurement and analysis of the Am-241(n,gamma) cross section with liquid scintillator detectors using time-of-flight spectroscopy at the n_TOF facility at CERN Type Journal Article
  Year 2014 Publication Physical Review C Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. C  
  Volume (down) 89 Issue 4 Pages 044609 - 14pp  
  Keywords  
  Abstract The Am-241(n,gamma) 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 resonance range bring new constraints to evaluations below 150 eV, and the energy upper limit was extended from 150 to 320 eV with a total of 172 new resonances not present in current evaluations. The thermal capture cross section was found to be sigma(th) = 678 +/- 68 b, which is in good agreement with evaluations and most previous measurements. The capture cross section in the unresolved resonance region was extracted in the remaining energy range up to 150 keV, and found to be larger than current evaluations and previous measurements.

  Title Neutron-induced fission cross section of U-234 measured at the CERN n_TOF facility Type Journal Article
  Year 2014 Publication Physical Review C Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. C  
  Volume (down) 89 Issue 4 Pages 044606 - 11pp  
  Keywords  
  Abstract The neutron-induced fission cross section of U-234 has been measured at the CERN nTOF facility relative to the standard fission cross section of U-235 from 20 keV to 1.4 MeV and of U-238 from 1.4 to 200 MeV. A fast ionization chamber (FIC) was used as a fission fragment detector with a detection efficiency of no less than 97%. The high instantaneous flux and the low background characterizing the nTOF facility resulted in wide-energy-range data (0.02 to 200 MeV), with high energy resolution, high statistics, and systematic uncertainties bellow 3%. Previous investigations around the energy of the fission threshold revealed structures attributed to beta-vibrational levels, which have been confirmed by the present measurements. Theoretical calculations have been performed, employing the TALYS code with model parameters tuned to fairly reproduce the experimental data.

  Title Deformation of Sr and Rb isotopes close to the N = Z line via beta-decay studies using the total absorption technique Type Journal Article
  Year 2013 Publication Physical Review C Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. C  
  Volume (down) 88 Issue 1 Pages 014324 - 15pp  
  Keywords  
  Abstract A study of the Gamow-Teller strength distributions B(GT) in the beta decay of Sr-78 and Rb-76,Rb-78 has been made using a total absorption spectrometer (TAS). Following the success in deducing the sign of the deformation for Sr-76, a similar approach is adopted for Sr-78 based on a comparison of the measured B(GT) with quasiparticle random-phase approximation calculations. This work confirms its previously expected prolate deformation in the ground state. Conclusions about the structure of the odd-odd Rb-76,Rb-78 isotopes have been drawn based on their measured B(GT) distributions.

  Title Neutron-induced fission cross section of Cm-245: New results from data taken at the time-of-flight facility n_TOF Type Journal Article
  Year 2012 Publication Physical Review C Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. C  
  Volume (down) 85 Issue 3 Pages 034616 - 10pp  
  Keywords  
  Abstract 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 been determined with 5% accuracy relative to the U-235(n,f) cross section. In order to reduce the uncertainty on the absolute value, the data have been normalized at thermal energy to recent measurements performed at ILL and BR1. In the energy range of overlap, the results are in fair agreement with some previous measurements and confirm, on average, the evaluated cross section in the ENDF/B-VII.0 database, although sizable differences are observed for some important resonances below 20 eV. A similar behavior is observed relative to JENDL/AC-2008, a reactor-oriented database for actinides. The new results contribute to the overall improvement of the databases needed for the design of advanced reactor systems and may lead to refinements of fission models for the actinides.
