A neutron experimental system, called Nuclear Data Production System (NDPS) [1,2], has been constructed at RAON (Rare Isotope Accelerator complex for ON-line experiments) in Republic of Korea. It is designed to produce both white and mono-energetic neutrons, utilizing ion beams and proton beams with thick graphite and thin lithium targets, respectively. Neutrons are generated in the target...
Accurate nuclear cross-section data are essential for the design, safety assessment, and optimization of innovative nuclear reactor systems. Neutron-capture cross sections of minor actinides (MAs) and long-lived fission products (LLFPs) are particularly important for evaluating transmutation, production rates, and fuel-cycle sustainability in advanced nuclear systems [1-3]. However, precise...
