Abstrakt

The (n, α) reaction in the radioactive ⁵⁹Ni is of relevance in nuclear astrophysics as ⁵⁹Ni

can be considered as the first branching point in the astrophysical

s-process. Its relevance in nuclear technology is especially related to

material embrittlement in stainless steel. However, there is a

discrepancy between available experimental data and the evaluated

nuclear data files for this reaction. At the n_TOF facility at CERN, a

dedicated system based on sCVD diamond diodes was set up to measure the ⁵⁹Ni(n, α)⁵⁶Fe

cross section. The results of this measurement, with special emphasis

on the dominant resonance at 203 eV, are presented here.
