Measurement of the 7Be(n,p) cross section at thermal energy

2019

The 7Be(n,p) cross section was measured with an ion-implanted 7Be target at a thermal neutron beam of the research reactor LVR-15 in Řež. The cross section to the ground state of 7Li is σ(n,p0)=43800±1400b and the cross section to the first excited state of 7Li is σ(n,p1)=520±260b.
