The accurate knowledge of the neutron capture cross sections of Gd-155 and Gd-157 plays an important in many fields of science. Despite of its importance, only few experimental data are available on these two isotopes in the low energy region. For this purpose, a measurement of the neutron capture cross-sections of the two odd Gd isotopes was carried out at the experimental area (EAR1) of the n_TOF facility at CERN. In this work, the main results obtained in the thermal region as well as in the resolved resonance region, will be presented.

Abstract
The accurate knowledge of the neutron capture cross sections of Gd-155 and Gd-157 plays an important in many fields of science. Despite of its importance, only few experimental data are available on these two isotopes in the low energy region. For this purpose, a measurement of the neutron capture cross-sections of the two odd Gd isotopes was carried out at the experimental area (EAR1) of the n_TOF facility at CERN. In this work, the main results obtained in the thermal region as well as in the resolved resonance region, will be presented.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
