Its relevance in nuclear technology is especially related to material embrittlement in stainless steel. However, there is a discrepancy between available experimental data and the evaluated nuclear data files for this reaction. At the n{\_}TOF facility at CERN, a dedicated system based on sCVD diamond diodes was set up to measure the Ni-59(n,alpha)Fe-56 cross section. The results of this measurement, with special emphasis on the dominant resonance at 203 eV, are presented here.", optnote="WOS:000339860100058", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=1876), last updated on Sat, 30 Aug 2014 16:47:26 +0000", issn="0090-3752", doi="10.1016/j.nds.2014.07.048", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nds.2014.07.048", language="English" }
