71. n_TOF facility at CERN

Dr Vasilis Vlachoudis (CERN)

01/09/2010, 14:30

The neutron Time of Flight (n_TOF) facility at CERN is a source of high flux of neutrons obtained by the spallation process of 20 GeV/c protons onto a solid lead target and the remarkable beam intensity of the Proton Synchrotron (PS). From Nov 2008 the n_TOF facility resumed operation after a halt of 4 years due to radio-protection issues. It features a new lead spallation target, new cooling...

6. Inelastic Neutron Scattering at nELBE

Mr Roland Beyer (Forschungszentrum Dresden-Rossendorf)

01/09/2010, 15:05

At the superconducting electron linear accelerator ELBE at Forschungszentrum Dresden-Rossendorf the neutron time-of-flight facility nELBE has become operational. Fast neutrons in the energy range from ca. 0.1 to 10 MeV are produced by the pulsed electron beam from ELBE impinging on a liquid lead circuit as a radiator. The short beam pulses of ~10 ps provide the basis for an excellent time...

11. Measurements at the 175 MeV neutron beam at TSL

Dr Stephan POMP

01/09/2010, 15:30

During the past few years, an experimental programme has been run at the 175 MeV neutron beam of The Svedberg Laboratory, Uppsala, Sweden. Elastic scattering and light-ion production have been studied for a number of different target nuclei. We will present the neutron beam facility, the experimental methods and some preliminary results.

12. Fast neutron facilities at the National Physical Laboratory, UK

Dr Nigel Hawkes (National Physical Laboratory)

01/09/2010, 15:55

This paper describes the facilities at the UK’s National Physical Laboratory for generating monoenergetic and broad-spectrum fast neutron fields. Monoenergetic neutrons within the energy range 50 keV - 17 MeV are produced, via a variety of nuclear reactions, by directing charged particle beams from the Neutron Metrology Group's 3.5 MV Van de Graaff accelerator on to appropriate...

72. NFS : A neutron facility at SPIRAL-2

Dr Xavier Ledoux (CEA/DAM/DIF)

01/09/2010, 16:55

The “Neutrons for Science” (NFS) will one of the SPIRAL-2 experimental areas. NFS, expected to be operational in 2012, will be composed of a pulsed neutron beam for in-flight measurements and an irradiation station for activation measurements and material studies. The beams delivered by the high-power superconducting driver LINAC of the SPIRAL-2 facility will allow producing intense pulsed...

68. Neutron time-of-flight measurements at GELINA

Dr peter schillebeeckx (EC-JRC-IRMM)

01/09/2010, 17:30

The study of neutron induced reactions is of interest to various disciplines in science and technology. The neutron time-of-flight facility GELINA installed at the IRMM Geel (B) has been designed to study neutron-induced reactions in the resonance region. It is a multi-user facility, providing a pulsed white neutron source, with a neutron energy range between 10 meV and 20 MeV and a time...
