Neutron capture cross section measurements at n_TOF of 237Np, 240Pu, 243Am, for the transmutation of nuclear waste

Accurate and reliable neutron capture cross section data for actinides are necessary for the proper design, safety regulation and precise performance assessment of transmutation devices such as Fast Critical Reactors or Accelerator Driven Systems. In particular, the neutron capture cross sections of...
