    PRESENT STATUS AND FUTURE PROGRAMS OF THE n_TOF EXPERIMENT

    PRESENT STATUS AND FUTURE PROGRAMS OF THE n_TOF EXPERIMENT High precision neutron cross-‐section data are of major importance for a wide variety of research fields in basic and applied nuclear physics [1]. In particular, neutron data on neutron-‐nucleus reactions are essential in Nuclear Astrophysics for understanding the production rate of heavy elements in the Universe,…
