A first prototype of CD total-energy detector with SiPM readout for neutron capture time-of-flight experiments

Balibrea Correa, J. Lerendegui Marco, Jorge Calvo, D.

Low 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 cell optically coupled to a fast photomultiplier tube. The large photomultiplier tube represents yet a significant...

New Measurement of the Capture Cross Section of Bismuth and Lead Isotopes

Domingo Pardo, César Tain, J. L. Abbondanno, U.

All the stable lead isotopes and 209Bi have been recently measured at n_TOF [1] (CERN) in the range from 1 eV up to 1 MeV, using an optimized experimental setup. A set of two homemade C6D6 detectors with carbon-fibre canning was designed to greatly reduce the sensitivity to scattered neutrons. Surrounding elements like the sample holder and the...
