Determining neutron-capture cross sections via the surrogate reaction technique
Indirect methods play an important role in the determination of nuclear reaction cross sections that are hard to measure directly. In this paper we investigate the feasibility of using the so-called surrogate method to extract neutron-capture cross sections for low energy compound-nuclear reactions in spherical and near-spherical nuclei. We present the surrogate method and develop a statistical...
متن کاملNeutron Capture Cross Sections of Cadmium Isotopes
The neutron capture cross sections of 106 Cd, 108 Cd, 110 Cd, 112 Cd, 114 Cd and 116 Cd were determined in the present project. Four different OSU TRIGA reactor facilities were used to produce redundancy in the results and to measure the thermal cross section and resonance integral separately. When the present values were compared with previously measured values, the differences were mostly due...
متن کاملSurrogate ratio methodology for the indirect determination of neutron capture cross sections
The relative γ -decay probabilities of the 162Dy to 161Dy and 162Dy to 164Dy residual nuclei, produced using light-ion-induced direct reactions, were measured as a function of excitation energy using the CACTUS array at the Oslo Cyclotron Laboratory. The external surrogate ratio method (SRM) was used to convert these relative γ -decay probabilities into the 161Dy(n,γ ) cross section in an equiv...
متن کاملNeutron capture cross sections: from theory to experiments and back
The method for an experimental determination of the stellar enhancement factor for the cross section of the 151Sm(n,γ) reaction process is proposed. This study offered the pretext for an excursus on the interconnections between capture and dissociation reactions and the interplay between theory and experiments in the determination of neutron capture cross sections.
متن کاملThermal Neutron Capture Cross Sections of the Palladium Isotopes
We have measured precise thermal neutron capture γ-ray cross sections σγ for all stable Palladium isotopes with the guided thermal neutron beam from the Budapest Reactor. The data were compared with other data from the literature and have been evaluated into the Evaluated Gamma-ray Activation File (EGAF)[1]. Total radiative neutron capture cross-sections σγ can be deduced from the sum of transi...
