The neutron capture cross sections of Np-237(n,gamma) and Pu-240(n,gamma) and its relevance in the transmutation of nuclear waste
Result description
Neutron capture cross sections of actinides are of great relevance for the Transmutation of Nuclear Waste in Accelerator Driven Systems (ADS) and Generation-IV reactors. The neutron capture cross sections of Np-237 and Pu-240 were measured at the n_TOF facility with a Total Absorption Calorimeter. The data have been analyzed with the SAMMY code. The corresponding covariance matrices have been generated. The final cross sections are presented and compared to the previously existing ones.
