Measurement of the a ratio and (n,¿) cross section of U 235 from 0.2 to 200 eV at n_TOF
(American Physical Society, 2020-10-20)
Article
Open AccessWe measured the neutron capture-to-fission cross-section ratio (a ratio) and the capture cross section of 235U between 0.2 and 200 eV at the n_TOF facility at CERN. The simultaneous measurement of neutron-induced capture ... -
A first prototype of C6D6 total-energy detector with SiPM readout for neutron capture time-of-flight experiments
(2021-01-01)
Article
Open AccessLow efficiency total-energy detectors (TEDs) are one of the main tools for neutron capture cross section measurements utilizing the time-of-flight (TOF) technique. State-of-the-art TEDs are based on a CD liquid-scintillation ... -
Minimizing the standard deviation of the thermal load in the spent nuclear fuel cask loading problem
(2020-09-17)
Article
Open AccessThe paper assumes that, at the end of the operational period of a Spanish nuclear power plant, an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation will be used for long-term storage. Spent fuel assemblies are selected and ... -

(2020-01-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyChemical plant system modeling experience based on the use of largely validated commercial modeling tools such as the Aspen HYSYS is adapted and exploited to develop numeric routines for unitary isotopic operations, including ... -
Development of flow regime maps for lead lithium eutectic–helium flows
(2020-09-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policynstitute for Plasma Research (IPR), Gandhinagar (India) is currently involved in the design and development of its Lead-Lithium Ceramic Breeder (LLCB) module for testing in the International Thermo-nuclear Experimental ... -
A compact fission detector for fission-tagging neutron capture experiments with radioactive fissile isotopes
(2020-04-21)
Article
Open AccessIn the measurement of neutron capture cross-sections of fissile isotopes, the fission channel is a source of background which can be removed efficiently using the so-called fission-tagging or fission-veto technique. For ... -
Investigation of the 240Pu (n, f) reaction at the n_TOF/EAR2 facility in the 9 meV–6 MeV range
(American Physical Society (APS), 2020-07-21)
Article
Open AccessBackground: Nuclear waste management is considered amongst the major challenges in the field of nuclear energy. A possible means of addressing this issue is waste transmutation in advanced nuclear systems, whose operation ... -
Modelado y resolución del problema del encapsulamiento de combustible nuclear gastado
(2020-07-16)
Article
Open AccessEn la gestión de residuos de combustible de las centrales nucleares españolas, está previsto activar los almacenes temporales individualizados (ATI) cuando se alcanza la saturación de la piscina destinada a albergar elementos ... -
Modelling guidelines for safety analysis of Station Black Out sequences based on experiments at the PKL test facility
(2020-04-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyAfter the Fukushima accident, “stress-test” activities carried out worldwide pointed out the need to study additional accident management measures to deal with prolonged Station Black Out (SBO) scenarios. Without any ... -
Measurement of the 154Gd(n,gamma) cross section and its astrophysical implications
(Elsevier, 2020-05-10)
Article
Open AccessThe neutron capture cross section of 154Gd was measured from 1 eV to 300 keV in the experimental area located 185 m from the CERN n_TOF neutron spallation source, using a metallic sample of gadolinium, enriched to 67% in ... -
Simultaneous measurement of neutron-induced capture and fission reactions at CERN
(2012)
Article
Open AccessThe measurement of the capture cross-section of fissile elements, of utmost importance for the design of innovative nuclear reactors and the management of nuclear waste, faces particular difficulties related to the -ray ... -
