Recent Nuclear Data Activity at the RPI Gaerttner LINAC Center Open
The nuclear data group at the RPI Gaerttner LINAC Laboratory uses a 60 MeV pulsed electron LINAC to produce short pulses of neutrons and perform cross section and other nuclear data measurements in a wide energy range from below 1 meV to a…

RPI LINAC refurbishment and upgrade project Open
The Electron Linear Accelerator at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) was constructed in the late 1950s and started operation in 1961 [1]. The facility was designed and used primarily for measurements of Nuclear Data (ND) with emphasis…

Experimental validation of thermal scattering evaluations Open
In order to test the performance of new neutron thermal scattering law (TSL) evaluations it is desirable to have experimental data that is highly sensitive to the TSL and provides high fidelity information on the energy dependent performan…

Overview of Nuclear Data Measurement and Analysis at RPI [Slides] Open
This presentation discusses the experimental, simulation, and nuclear data methods that were validated for the RPI γ-Multiplicity Detector. When the neutron capture γ-cascade data is well-known, the γ-emission spectra can be accurately cal…
