(SUNY, Stony Brook) ; Desforge, D. (IRFU, Saclay) et al.
The PICOSEC-Micromegas (PICOSEC-MM) detector is a novel gaseous detector designed for precise timing resolution in experimental measurements. It eliminates time jitter from charged particles in ionization gaps by using extreme UV Cherenkov light emitted in a crystal, detected by a Micromegas photodetector with an appropriate photocathode.

A Case Study on Deep Learning applied to Capture Cross Section Data Analysis / Sanchez-Caballero, Adrian (Madrid, CIEMAT) ; Alcayne, Víctor (Madrid, CIEMAT) ; Cano-Ott, Daniel (Madrid, CIEMAT) ; Mendoza, Emilio (Madrid, CIEMAT) ; Pérez de Rada, Alberto (Madrid, CIEMAT) /n_TOF Collaboration
A good data analysis of neutron cross section measurements is necessary for generating high quality and reliable nuclear databases. Artificial intelligence techniques, and in particular deep learning, have proven to be very useful for pattern recognition and data analysis, and thus may be used in the field of experimental nuclear physics.

Results of the $^{244}$Cm, $^{246}$Cm and $^{248}$Cm neutron-induced capture cross sections measurements at EAR1 and EAR2 of the n_TOF facility / nTOF Collaboration
Accurate neutron capture cross section data for minor actinides (MAs) are required to estimate the production and transmutation rates of MAs in light water reactors, critical fast reactors like Gen-IV systems, and other innovative reactor systems such as accelerator driven systems (ADS). In particular, 244Cm, 246Cm and 248Cm play a role in the transport, storage and transmutation of the nuclear waste of the current nuclear reactors, due to the contribution of these isotopes to the radiotoxicity, neutron emission, and decay heat in the spent nuclear fuel.

High resolution $^{80}$Se(n,γ) cross section measurement at CERN n_TOF / n_TOF Collaboration
Neutron capture cross section measurements of isotopes close to s-process branching-points are of fundamental importance for the understanding of this nucleosynthesis mechanism through which about 50% of the elements heavier than iron are produced. We present in this contribution the results corresponding to the high resolution measurement, for first time ever, of the $^{80}$Se(n, γ) cross section, in which 98 resonances never measured before have been reported.

Measurement of the $^{241}$Am(n,γ) cross section at the n_TOF facility at CERN / n_TOF Collaboration
The neutron capture cross section of $^{241}$Am is an important quantity for nuclear energy production and fuel cycle scenarios. Several measurements have been performed in recent years with the aim to reduce existing uncertainties in evaluated data. [...]

A new measurement of the $^{235}$U(n,f) fission cross section was carried out at n_TOF. The experiment covered the neutron energy range from 10 MeV up to 500 MeV, and it used the 1H(n,n) cross section as normalization for the neutron fluence measurement. [...]

Measurement of the 160Gd(n, γ) cross section at n_TOF and its medical implications / n_TOF Collaboration
Neutron-capture reactions on gadolinium isotopes play an important role in several fields of physics, in particular in nuclear Astrophysics for the understanding of the nucleosynthesis of heavy elements (beyond iron) in stars via the s- and r-processes [1] and in nuclear technology. Another important application of gadolinium is linked to the production of terbium, that offers a set of clinically interesting isotopes for the ranostics, characterized by complementary physical decay characteristics.

A segmented total energy detector (sTED) for (n, γ) cross section measurements at n_TOF EAR2 / n_TOF Collaboration
The neutron time-of-flight facility n_TOF is characterised by its high instantaneous neutron intensity, high-resolution and broad neutron energy spectra, specially conceived for neutron-induced reaction cross section measurements. Two Time-Of-Flight (TOF) experimental areas are available at the facility: experimental area 1 (EAR1), located at the end of the 185 m horizontal flight path from the spallation target, and experimental area 2 (EAR2), placed at 20 m from the target in the vertical direction.
