Miniature and Minimalistic Neutron Detectors for Online High-Resolution Experiments in the Zero-Power Reactor CROCUS

Fanny Vitullo

The continuous strive for more efficient and reliable nuclear power plants is leading to increasing complexity in the design and operations of reactors. As a consequence, comprehensive analyses are required to assess the reactor's safety during normal and ...

Nuclear Excitation by Free Muon Capture

Fabrizio Carbone, Ivan Madan, Simone Gargiulo

Efficient excitation of nuclei via exchange of a real or virtual photon has a fundamental importance for nuclear science and technology development. Here, we present a mechanism of nuclear excitation based on the capture of a free muon into the atomic orbi ...

The Pristine survey - XV. A CHIT ESPaDOnS view on the Milky Way halo and disc populations

Pascale Jablonka, Willem Suter, Carmela Lardo, Romain Ely Roland Lucchesi

We present a one-dimensional, local thermodynamic equilibrium homogeneous analysis of 132 stars observed at high resolution with ESPaDOnS. This represents the largest sample observed at high resolution (R similar to 40 000) from the Pristine survey. This s ...

The first generations of stars in the Local Group

Romain Ely Roland Lucchesi

The different projects of this thesis contribute to improving our understanding of the early chemical evolution of the galaxies. The standard cosmological model states an hierarchical formation of the galaxies, the dwarf galaxies being the first stellar sy ...

Modeling the response of a diamond detector in the zero power reactor CROCUS

Pavel Frajtag, Andreas Pautz, Vincent Pierre Lamirand, Mathieu Hursin, DongHyuk Lee

The present manuscript documents the development of a practical calculation scheme to model the response of a diamond detector in the mixed (neutron and gamma) radiation field of the CROCUS experimental reactor at EPFL. The model is shown to perform reason ...
