Abstrakt

The cross section of the Ni62(n,γ)

reaction was measured with the time-of-flight technique at the neutron

time-of-flight facility n_TOF at CERN. Capture kernels of 42 resonances

were analyzed up to 200 keV neutron energy and Maxwellian averaged cross

sections (MACS) from kT= 5–100 keV were calculated. With a total uncertainty of 4.5%, the stellar cross section is in excellent agreement with the the KADoNiS compilation at kT=30 keV, while being systematically lower up to a factor of 1.6 at higher stellar temperatures. The cross section of the Ni63(n,γ)

reaction was measured for the first time at n_TOF. We determined

unresolved cross sections from 10 to 270 keV with a systematic

uncertainty of 17%. These results provide fundamental constraints on s-process

production of heavier species, especially the production of Cu in

massive stars, which serve as the dominant source of Cu in the solar

system.
