Neutron capture cross section measurements for nuclear astrophysics at CERN n_TOF
Abbondanno, U.; Aerts, G.; Alvarez-Velarde, F.; Álvarez-Pol, H.; Andriamonje, S.; Andrzejewski, J.; Badurek, G.; Baumann, P.; Becvár, F.; Benlliure, J.A series of neutron capture cross section measurements of interest to nuclear astrophysics have been recently performed at n_TOF, the neutron spallation source operating at CERN. The low repetition frequency of the proton beam driver, the extremely high instantaneous neutron flux, and the low background conditions in the experimental area are optimal for capture cross section measurements on low-mass or radioac...
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 ...
