Measurement of the fission fragment angular distribution for Th- 232(n,f) at the CERN n_TOF facility
A fission reaction chamber was designed to measure the angular distribution of the fragments emitted in neutron-induced fission reactions at n_TOF. Up to ten Parallel Plate Avalanche Counters can be included and kept at controlled low-pressure gas. Counters are tilted 45o with respect to the neu...

| Summary: | A fission reaction chamber was designed to measure the angular distribution
of the fragments emitted in neutron-induced fission reactions at n_TOF. Up
to ten Parallel Plate Avalanche Counters can be included and kept at
controlled low-pressure gas. Counters are tilted 45o with respect to the
neutron beam direction and up to nine targets can be interleaved in between.
A first measurement of the 232Th(n,f) was recently done and preliminary
experimental results demonstrating the suitability of the setup are presented
here. |
