Study of Intermediate-spin States of Y-98
The nuclear structure of the odd–odd nucleus 98Y has been re-investigated
by observing prompt γ rays emitted following the proton-induced fission
of a 238U target, using the JUROGAM-II multidetector array. New highspin
decays have been observed and placed in the level schemes using triple
coincidences. The experimental level energies and γ-decay patterns are
compared to GICM and QPRM calculations, assuming that this neutronrich
N = 59 isotone is spherical at low energies and prolate deformed at
intermediate spins.Web of Science47391691
Fission cross section measurements for 240Pu, 242Pu
This report comprises the deliverable 1.5 of the ANDES project (EURATOM contract FP7-249671) of Task 3 "High accuracy measurements for fission" of Work Package 1 entitled "Measurements for advanced reactor systems". This deliverables provide evidence of a successful completion of the objectives of Task 3.JRC.D.4-Standards for Nuclear Safety, Security and Safeguard
Neutron-induced fission cross sections of short-lived actinides with the surrogate reaction method
Neutron-induced fission cross sections for 242,243Cm and 241Am have been obtained with the surrogate reaction method. Recent results for the neutron-induced cross section of 243Cm are questioned by the present data. For the first time, the 242Cm cross section has been determined up to the onset of second-chance fission. The good agreement at the lowest excitation energies between the present results and the existing neutron-induced data indicates that the distributions in spin and parity of states populated with both techniques are similar
