Status and outlook of the neutron time-of-flight facility n_TOF at CERN
Gunsing, F.; Abbondanno, U.; Aerts, G.; Alvarez, H.; Álvarez-Velarde, F.; Andriamonje, S.; Andrzejewski, J.; Assimakopoulos, P.; Audouin, L.The neutron time-of-flight facility n_TOF at CERN, fully operational since 2002, combines a high instantaneous neutron flux with high energy resolution. The wide energy range and the high neutron flux per time-of-flight burst result in a much enhanced signal to background ratio for neutron capture of radioactive isotopes and makes this facility well suited for the measurement of high quality neutron-induced rea...
Neutron reactions and nuclear cosmo-chronology
Mosconi, M.; Heil, M.; Käppeler, F.; Mengoni, A.; Plag, R.; Fujii, K.; Gallino, R.; Aerts, G.; Terlizzi, R.; Abbondanno, U.; Álvarez-Pol, H.The [beta]-decay of 187Re represents a suited cosmo-chronometer for the age of the r-process abundances, since the radiogenic part of the daughter isotope 187Os is defined by the difference between the solar 187Os abundance and s-process contribution to 187Os. The latter component can be determined via the s-process systematics based on the stellar neutron capture cross sections of 186Os and 187Os. The laborato...
A low-mass neutron flux monitor for the n _TOF facility at CERN
Mastinu,P. F.; Abbondanno,U.; Aerts,G.; Alvarez,H.; Andriamonje,S.; Angelopoulos,A.; Assimakopoulos,P.; Bacri,C.O.; Badurek,G.; Baumann,P.; Becvár,F.A small-mass system has been developed for monitoring the flux of neutrons with energy up to 1 MeV at the new time-of-flight facility at CERN, n_TOF. The monitor is based on a thin Mylar foil with a 6Li deposit, placed in the neutron beam, and an array of Silicon detectors, placed outside the beam, for detecting the products of the 6Li(n, alpha)³H reaction. The small amount of material on the beam ensures a min...
Measurement of the n_TOF beam profile with a micromegas detector
Pancin, J.; Abbondanno, U.; Aerts, G.; Alvarez, H.; Andriamonje, S.; Angelopoulos, A.; Assimakopoulos, P.; Bacri, C.; Badurek, G.; Baumann, P.A Micromegas detector was used in the neutron Time-Of-Flight (n_TOF) facility at CERN to evaluate the spatial distribution of the neutron beam as a function of its kinetic energy. This was achieved over a large range of neutron energies by using two complementary processes: at low energy by capture of a neutron via the 6Li(n,[alpha])t reaction, and at high energy by elastic scattering of neutrons on gas nuclei ...
