Neutron capture and transmission measurements were performed by the time-of-flight technique at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute LINAC using metallic neodymium samples. The capture measurements were made at the 25-m-long flight station with a 16-segment NaI(Tl) multiplicity detector, and the transmission measurements were performed at 15 and 25 m flight stations with a 6Li glass scintillation detector. After the data were collected and reduced, resonance parameters were determined by simultaneously fitting the transmission and capture data with the multilevel R-matrix Bayesian code SAMMY. The resonance parameters for all naturally occurring neodymium isotopes lie within the energy range of 1.0-500 eV. The resulting resonance parameters were used to calculate the capture resonance integral with this energy region and were compared to calculations obtained when using the resonance parameters from ENDF-B/VI. The RPI parameters gave a resonance integral value of 32 +/- 0.5 b that is approximately 7% lower than that obtained with the ENDF-B/VI parameters. The current measurements significantly reduce the statistical uncertainties on the resonance parameters when compared with previously published parameters.
The powerful white neutron spectrum from Gelina is used for the investigation of gamma ray production cross sections in the reaction 52Cr(n,n'gamma)52Cr. The gamma rays from the inelastic process are detected with two large volume HPGe detectors placed at 110 degrees and 150 degrees with respect to the beam direction. The neutron flux has been measured with a 235U fission chamber. For the main transitions the inelastic cross section is given with an incident neutron energy resolution ranging from 1.12 keV at 1 MeV to 35.7 keV at 10 MeV, the overall statistical error being <5%. Based on the known 52Cr level scheme, the level and total inelastic cross sections have been obtained up to 3.77 MeV excitation energy. Progress on the implementation of a new acquisition system based on a fast digitiser is presented in this paper.
Fayalite grains in chondrules in the oxidized, aqueously altered CV3 chondrite Mokoia have large excesses of radiogenic chromium-53. These excesses indicate the in situ decay of short-lived manganese-53 (half-life = 3.7 million years) and define an initial 53Mn/55Mn ratio of 2.32 (+/-0.18) x 10(-6). This ratio is comparable to values for carbonates in CI and CM chondrites and for several classes of differentiated meteorites. Mokoia fayalites formed 7 to 16 million years after Allende calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions, during hydrothermal activity on a geologically active asteroid after chondritic components had ceased forming in the solar nebula.
