Results of time-of-flight transmission measurements for 63,65Cu and natCu at a 50 m station of GELINA

Abstract

Transmission measurements have been performed at the time-of-flight facility GELINA to determine neutron resonance parameters for 63Cu and 65Cu. The experiments have been carried out at a 50 m transmission station at a moderated neutron beam using a Li-glass scintillator with the accelerator operating at 800 Hz. Measurements were performed with a natCu metallic sample and metallic samples enriched in 63Cu and 65Cu. This report describes the experimental details required to deliver the experimental transmission to the EXFOR data library which is maintained by the Nuclear Energy Agency of the OECD and the Nuclear Data Section of the IAEA. The experimental conditions and data reduction procedures are described. In addition, the full covariance information based on the AGS concept is given, such that resonance parameters together with their covariances can be derived in a least squares adjustment to the data.JRC.D.4-Standards for Nuclear Safety, Security and Safeguard
