Measurement of the 240Pu(n,f) cross-section at the CERN n_TOF facility: first results from EAR-2
The accurate knowledge of neutron cross-sections of a variety of plutonium isotopes and other minor actinides, such as neptunium, americium and curium, is crucial for feasibility and performance studies of advanced nuclear systems (Generation-IV reactors, Accelerator Driven Systems). In this context, the 240Pu(n,f) cross-section was measured with the time-of-flight technique at the CERN n_TOF f...
متن کاملCross Section Measurement at CMS
The startup of the Large Hadron Collider will allow scientists to probe energy scales that existed picoseconds after the Big Bang. Monte Carlo samples of many Standard Model processes are produced to simulate the conditions in the Compact Muon Solenoid detector. Data analysis techniques are developed to measure the cross section of the WZ 3e(e, 1u) decay channel. The results are al = 723.4 + 27...
متن کاملThe n_TOF Facility at CERN: Performances and First Physics Results
The neutron Time of Flight (n_TOF) facility at CERN is a source of a wide-range (1 eV<En<250 MeV) flux of neutrons, generated by spallation of 20-GeV/c protons onto a solid lead target. The goal of the n_TOF is to provide unprecedented precision in neutron kinetic energy determination, which will in turn bring the much-needed precision in neutron-induced cross-section measurements. The unique f...
متن کاملJet Cross Section Measurement at Dø
We present a new preliminary measurement of the inclusive jet cross section in p¯ p collisions based on a integrated luminosity of about 0.8 fb −1. The data were acquired using the DØ detector between 2002 and 2005. Jets are reconstructed using an iterative cone algorithm with radius Rcone = 0.7. The inclusive jet cross section is presented as a function of transverse jet momentum and rapidity....
متن کامل^{7}Be(n,α)^{4}He Reaction and the Cosmological Lithium Problem: Measurement of the Cross Section in a Wide Energy Range at n_TOF at CERN.
The energy-dependent cross section of the ^{7}Be(n,α)^{4}He reaction, of interest for the so-called cosmological lithium problem in big bang nucleosynthesis, has been measured for the first time from 10 meV to 10 keV neutron energy. The challenges posed by the short half-life of ^{7}Be and by the low reaction cross section have been overcome at n_TOF thanks to an unprecedented combination of th...
