Article: Simultaneous measurement of the neutron capture and fission yields of 233-U
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We have measured the neutron capture and fission cross section of 233 U at the neutron time-of-flight facility n TOF at CERN in the energy range from 1 eV to 1 MeV with high accuracy by using a high performance 4π BaF 2 Total Absorption Calorimeter (TAC) as a detection device. The method, based on the TAC energy response study, allowing to disentangle between γ's originating from fission and capture will be presented as well as the first very preliminary results.N.

Article: Isotopic Yield Distributions of Transfer- and Fusion-Induced Fission from 238U+12C Reactions in Inverse Kinematics
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A novel method to access the complete identification in atomic number Z and mass A of fragments produced in low-energy fission of actinides is presented. This method, based on the use of multi- nucleon transfer and fusion reactions in inverse kinematics, is applied in this work to reactions between a 238U beam and a 12C target to produce and induce fission of moderately excited actinides. The fission fragments are detected and fully identified with the VAMOS spectrometer of GANIL, allowing the measurement of fragment yields of several hundreds of isotopes in a range between A ~ 80 and ~ 160, and from Z ~ 30 to ~ 64. For the first time, complete isotopic yield distributions of fragments from well-defined fissioning systems are available. Together with the precise measurement of the fragment emission angles and velocities, this technique gives further insight into the nuclear-fission process.04/2013;
