Measurements of the decay energy released as a function of time following the thermal neutron induced fission on $^{235}$U and $^{239,241}$Pu were performed in the 1970s at Oak Ridge National Laboratory with the purpose of quantifying…
We investigate the decay of 87Br, 88Br and 94Rb using total absorption gamma-ray spectroscopy. These important fission products are beta-delayed neutron emitters. Our data show considerable gamma-intensity, so far unobserved in…
The development of nuclear fuels requires unsteady/transient testing for design process and qualification under postulated accident conditions. Breach, rupture, fracture, melting, and other fuel failure modes may occur during the use of…
In this paper, we study the impact of the inclusion of the recently measured beta decay properties of the $^{102;104;105;106;107}$Tc, $^{105}$Mo, and $^{101}$Nb nuclei in an updated calculation of the antineutrino energy spectra of the four…
Thermal fission energy is one of the basic parameters needed in the calculation of antineutrino flux for reactor neutrino experiments. It is useful to improve the precision of the thermal fission energy calculation for current and future…
In this review we will present the results of recent beta-decay studies using the total absorption technique that cover topics of interest for applications, nuclear structure and astrophysics. The decays studied were selected primarily…
The decays of the $\beta$-delayed neutron emitters $^{137}$I and $^{95}$Rb have been studied with the total absorption $\gamma$-ray spectroscopy technique. The purity of the beams provided by the JYFLTRAP Penning trap at the ion guide…
The cross section averaged over 235U thermal-neutron induced fission spectrum is a fundamental quantity that can be used in evaluation and validation of nuclear data. Many experiments focused on the determination of Spectrum Averaged Cross…
The large quantities of antineutrinos produced through the decay of fission fragments in nuclear reactors provide an opportunity to study the properties of these particles and investigate their use in reactor monitoring. The reactor…
The beta decays of $^{86}$Br and $^{91}$Rb have been studied using the total absorption spectroscopy technique. The radioactive nuclei were produced at the IGISOL facility in Jyv\"askyl\"a and further purified using the JYFLTRAP. $^{86}$Br…
The nuclear fission process that occurs in the core of nuclear reactors results in unstable, neutron rich fission products that subsequently beta decay and emit electron anti-neutrinos. These reactor neutrinos have served neutrino physics…
Total radiative thermal neutron-capture $\gamma$-ray cross sections for the $^{182,183,184,186}$W isotopes were measured using guided neutron beams from the Budapest Research Reactor to induce prompt and delayed $\gamma$ rays from elemental…
A conceptual experimental method for providing a new measurement of the underlying beta decay spectra from fission products is presented. The goal is to provide additional information related to the prediction of the antineutrino emission…
Decay energy spectrometry (DES) is a novel radiometric technique for high-precision analysis of nuclear materials. DES employs the unique thermal detection physics of cryogenic microcalorimeters with ultra-high energy resolution and 100$\%$…
A set of prompt partial $\gamma$-ray production cross sections from thermal neutron-capture were measured for the $^{139}$La($n,\gamma$) reaction using a guided beam of subthermal (thermal and cold) neutrons incident upon a $^{\rm…
Reaction measurements on fission products are being planned at both Argonne National Lab and at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams. These indirect experiments produce specific short-lived nuclei via beta decay, and the subsequent neutron…
Comparing with ITER, the experimental fusion machine under constraction, the next step test fusion power plant, DEMO will be characterized by very long pulse/steady-state operation and much higher plasma volume and fusion power. The…
CEvNS detectors could provide new opportunities in nuclear physics applications if they can improve existing parameters such as neutrino detector size, portability, their sensitivity to a large range of reactor antineutrino energies, and…
Using transient grating spectroscopy (TGS) we measure the thermal diffusivity of tungsten exposed to different levels of 20 MeV self-ion irradiation. Damage as low as 3.2 x 10^-4 displacements per atom (dpa) causes a measurable reduction in…
Cryogenic microcalorimeters are state-of-the-art radiation detectors using superconducting and quantum technologies. They can resolve complex X-ray and low-energy {\gamma}-ray spectra with ultra-high energy resolution of an order of 10 eV…
