Capture events from a natural metal sample and from samples enriched in Mg-25 and Mg-26 were recorded using the total energy method based on (C6H6)-H-2 detectors. Neutron resonance parameters were extracted by a simultaneous resonance shape analysis of the present capture data and existing transmission data on a natural isotopic sample. Maxwellian-averaged capture cross sections for the three isotopes were calculated up to thermal energies of 100 keV and their impact on s-process analyses was investigated. At 30 keV the new values of the stellar cross section for Mg-24, Mg-25, and Mg-26 are 3.8 +/- 0.2 mb, 4.1 +/- 0.6 mb, and 0.14 +/- 0.01 mb, respectively.", optnote="WOS:000303069400003", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=994), last updated on Thu, 17 May 2012 17:44:33 +0000", issn="0556-2813", doi="10.1103/PhysRevC.85.044615", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevC.85.044615", language="English" }
