Neutron cross-sections for next generation reactors: New data from n_TOF

In 2002, an innovative neutron time-of-flight facility started operation at CERN: n\_TOF. The main characteristics that make the new facility unique are the high instantaneous neutron flux, high resolution and wide energy range. Combined with state-of-the-art detectors and data acquisition system, t...

Descripción
Sumario:In 2002, an innovative neutron time-of-flight facility started operation at CERN: n\_TOF. The main characteristics that make the new facility unique are the high instantaneous neutron flux, high resolution and wide energy range. Combined with state-of-the-art detectors and data acquisition system, these features have allowed to collect high accuracy neutron cross-section data on a variety of isotopes, many of which radioactive, of interest for Nuclear Astrophysics and for applications to advanced reactor technologies. A review of the most important results on capture and fission reactions obtained so far at n\_TOF is presented, together with plans for new measurements related to nuclear industry.
