Detector set up for the measurements of the neutron-induced fission cross section of 235 U relative to n-p scattering up to 150 MeV at CERN-n_TOF

A new measurement of the 235 U(n,f) fission cross section was carried out at n_TOF. The experiment covered the neutron energy range from 10 MeV up to 500 MeV, and it used the 1 H(n,n) cross section as normalization for the neutron fluence measurement. In this contribution, the measurements and the c...

Description
Summary:A new measurement of the 235 U(n,f) fission cross section was carried out at n_TOF. The experiment covered the neutron energy range from 10 MeV up to 500 MeV, and it used the 1 H(n,n) cross section as normalization for the neutron fluence measurement. In this contribution, the measurements and the characterization of the detectors covering the incident energy range up to 150 MeV are discussed.
