Stellar s-process neutron capture cross sections on ASe and ACe

We report on experiments at the Soreq Applied Research Accelerator Facility Liquid-Lithium Target (SARAF-LiLiT) laboratory dedicated to the study of s-process neutron capture reactions. The kW-power proton beam at 1.92 MeV (1-2 mA) from SARAF Phase I yields high-intensity 30 keV quasi-Maxwellian neu...

description We report on experiments at the Soreq Applied Research Accelerator Facility Liquid-Lithium Target (SARAF-LiLiT) laboratory dedicated to the study of s-process neutron capture reactions. The kW-power proton beam at 1.92 MeV (1-2 mA) from SARAF Phase I yields high-intensity 30 keV quasi-Maxwellian neutrons (3-5 1010 n/s). The high neutron intensity enables Maxwellian averaged cross sections (MACS) measurements of samples with short-lived decay products. Neutron capture reactions on natSe and natCe were investigated by activation in the LiLiT neutron beam and γ-spectrometry measurements of their decay products.
