Measurements of Neutron-Capture Cross Sections of Palladium Isotopes at the J-PARC/MLF/ANNRI

The operation of a new experimental apparatus called ``Accurate Neutron-Nucleus Reaction measurement Instrument (ANNRI)''in the Material and Life science experimental Facility (MLF) at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC) has been started for neutroncapture crosssection measurements of minor actinides and long-lived fission products. As a part of the measurements, we have measured the time-of-flight spectra of palladium-105, 106, 107 and 108 with a ``4π Ge spectrometer'' installed at the ANNRI. We obtained preliminary results of the cross sections for palladium-107 and 105 in neutron energies ranging from 0.1 eV to 300 eV. KCI Citation Count: 5
