CERN-PS-211()
EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF THE PHENOMENOLOGY OF SPALLATION NEUTRONS IN A LARGE LEAD BLOCK
()
- Approved: Jun 15, 1995,
- Completed: 1997
The purpose of the experiment is to determine how neutrons produced by spallation inside a large Lead volume are slowed down by undergoing a very large number of scatterings, losing each time a small fraction (about 1%) of their kinetic energy. The focus is in determining the capture survival probability resulting from the process (Adiabatic Resonance Crossing) which involves a subtle interplay between the resonances of the Lead medium and of selected impurities. In preparation (June 96).
