Neutron capture and total cross-section measurements on ⁹⁴︐⁹⁵︐⁹⁶Mo at n_TOF and GELINA

Abstract

Capture and total cross section measurements for ⁹⁴︐⁹⁵︐⁹⁶Mo have been performed at the neutron time-of-flight facilities, n_TOF at CERN and GELINA at JRC-Geel. The measurements were performed using isotopically enriched samples with an enrichment above 95% for each of the ⁹⁴︐⁹⁵︐⁹⁶Mo isotopes. The capture measurements were performed at n_TOF using C₆D₆ detectors and a new sTED detector. The transmission measurements were performed at a 10 m station of GELINA using a ⁶Li glass neutron detector. Preliminary results of these measurements are presented.
