High precision neutron inelastic cross section measurements
Résumé
High precision neutron inelastic scattering cross section data are very important for the development of the new generation of nuclear reactors (Gen IV). Our experiments, performed using the GELINA neutron source and the GAINS spectrometer of
the European Commission Joint Research Center, Geel, produce highly reliable and precise cross section data. We will present the
details of the setup and the data analysis technique allowing production of such unique results, and we will show examples of two
experimental results
