Neutron capture cross section of Mn53 from irradiation with cold and reactor neutrons

Abstract: The neutron capture cross section of 53 Mn was measured with cold and reactor neutrons by the activation method, relative to the well-known cross section of 59 Co. Three targets containing a total of ≈10 18 atoms 53 Mn in the form of chloride salt were prepared using a stock solution obtained from activated accelerator waste in the course of the ERAWAST initiative at Paul Scherrer Institute, Switzerland (PSI). Natural cobalt salt was added to the sample material as an internal neutron flux monitor. The total n… Show more

“…4, the results for the thermal neutron cross section, measured at the research reactor LVR-15 in Rez (Czech Republic), and for the cold neutrons using the ICON beamline at PSI, reproduce well the values known from literature [36a] with an essentially improved uncertainty. [42] Moreover, it was possible for the first time, using the LiLiT source at SOREQ (Israel), to obtain a Maxwellian Averaged Cross Section (MACS), matching stellar neutron energies of 20-50 keV. [43] The work is completed by measuring the interaction of very cold neutrons at ILL with 53 Mn.…”
