Abstract The\(^{246}\) Cm (n,\(\gamma\)) and\(^{248}\) Cm (n,\(\gamma\)) cross-sections
have been measured at the Experimental Area 2 (EAR2) of the n_TOF facility at CERN with …

The spent fuel of current nuclear reactors contains fissile plutonium isotopes that can be
combined with uranium to make mixed oxide (MOX) fuel. In this way the Pu from spent fuel is …

A new measurement of the 235 U (n, f) cross section was performed at the neutron time-of-
flight facility n_TOF at CERN. The experiment focused on neutron energies from 20 MeV to …

The direct response of Silicon PhotoMultipliers being traversed by a MIP charged particle
have been studied in a systematic way for the first time. Using beam test data, time …
