The high instantaneous neutron flux available in EAR2 allows to investigate neutron induced reactions with charged particles in the exit channel even employing targets made out of small amounts of short-lived radioactive isotopes. After the successful measurement of the Be-7(n,alpha)alpha cross section, the Be-7(n,p)Li-7 reaction was studied in order to provide still missing cross section data of relevance for Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN), in an attempt to find a solution to the cosmological Lithium abundance problem. This paper describes the experimental setup employed in such a measurement and its characterization.", optnote="WOS:000427814400005", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=3528), last updated on Wed, 04 Apr 2018 14:32:25 +0000", issn="0168-9002", doi="10.1016/j.nima.2017.12.025", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/1708.01178", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nima.2017.12.025", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="1708.01178", language="English" }
