Present and next generation of long-baseline accelerator experiments are bringing the measurement of neutrino oscillations into the precision era with ever-increasing statistics. One of the most challenging aspects of achieving such measurements is developing relevant systematic uncertainties in the modeling of nuclear effects in neutrino-nucleus interactions. [...]

Study of final-state interactions of protons in neutrino-nucleus scattering with INCL and NuWro cascade models

The modeling of neutrino-nucleus interactions constitutes a challenging source of systematic uncertainty for the extraction of precise values of neutrino oscillation parameters in long-baseline accelerator neutrino experiments. To improve such modeling and minimize the corresponding uncertainties, a new generation of detectors is being developed, which aim to measure the complete final state of particles resulting from neutrino interactions.

Production of strange particles and hypernuclei in spallation reactions from the coupling of intranuclear cascade and de-excitation models

Paris-Saclay) ; Schnabel, G (IRFU, Saclay ; U. Paris-Saclay)
Motivated by a renewed interest in hypernucleus studies, the strangeness degree
of freedom was implemented in the intranuclear cascade model INCL. This model
takes care of the first stage of reactions between a nucleon (or a light
cluster) and a nucleus at energies from a few tens of MeV up to a few GeV. [...]

On the role of secondary pions in spallation targets
/ Mancusi, Davide (CEA, DEN, Saclay, SERMA) ; Lo Meo, Sergio (ENEA, Bologna ; INFN, Bologna) ; Colonna, Nicola (INFN, Bari) ; Boudard, Alain (IRFU, Saclay) ; Cortés-Giraldo, Miguel Antonio (Seville U.) ; Cugnon, Joseph (Liege U.) ; David, Jean-Christophe (IRFU, Saclay) ; Leray, Sylvie (IRFU, Saclay) ; Lerendegui-Marco, Jorge (Seville U.) ; Massimi, Cristian (INFN, Bologna ; Bologna U.) et al.
We use particle-transport simulations to show that secondary pions play a crucial role for the development of the hadronic cascade and therefore for the production of neutrons and photons from thick spallation targets. In particular, for the n_TOF lead spallation target, irradiated with 20-GeV/c protons, neutral pions are involved in the production of ~90% of the high-energy photons; charged pions participate in ~40% of the integral neutron yield.

Measurement of Volatile Radionuclides Production and Release Yields followed by a Post-Irradiation Analysis of a Pb/Bi Filled Ta Target at ISOLDE

A crucial requirement in the development of liquid-metal spallation neutron target is knowledge
of the composition and amount of volatile radionuclides that are released from the target during
operation. It is also important to know the total amount produced, which could be released if there
was an accident. [...]

EURISOL Multimegawatt Target Unit - MAFF Configuration: Dosimetry and Activation Studies
/ Luis, R (ITN, Sacavem) ; Bermudez, J (INFN, Legnaro) ; Kadi, Y (CERN) ; Tecchio, L (INFN, Legnaro) ; Kharoua, C (CERN) ; Vaz, P (ITN, Sacavem) ; Ene, D (IRFU, SPhN, Saclay) ; David, J C (IRFU, SPhN, Saclay) ; Goncalves, I F (ITN, Sacavem) ; Rocca, R (CERN) et al.
The EURopean Isotope Separation On-Line Radioactive Ion Beam (EURISOL) project aims at building a facility to produce radioactive ion beams with intensities two to three orders of magnitude higher than those presently available. A 4-MW (1-GeV, 4-mA) proton beam hits a liquid mercury converter, generating, by spallation reactions, high neutron fluxes that induce fission in surrounding fissile targets. [...]

EURISOL-DS multi-MW target unit: Neutronics performance and shielding assessment, dose rate and material activation calculations for the MAFF configuration
/ Romanets, Y (ITN, Sacavem) ; Bermudez, J (INFN, Legnaro) ; Kadi, Y (CERN) ; Luis, R (ITN, Sacavem) ; Goncalves, I F (ITN, Sacavem) ; Tecchio, L (INFN, Legnaro) ; Kharoua, C (CERN) ; Vaz, P (ITN, Sacavem) ; Ene, D (IRFU, SPhN, Saclay) ; David, J C (IRFU, SPhN, Saclay) et al.
One of the objectives of the EURISOL (EURopean Isotope Separation On-Line Radioactive Ion Beam) Design Study consisted of providing a safe and reliable facility layout and design for the following operational parameters and characteristics: (a) a 4 MW proton beam of 1 GeV energy impinging on a mercury target (the converter); (b) high neutron fluxes (similar to 3 x 10(16) neutrons/s) generated by spallation reactions of the protons impinging in the converter and (c) fission rate on fissile U-235 targets in excess of 10(15) fissions/s. In this work, the state-of-the-art Monte Carlo codes MCNPX (Pelowitz, 2005) and FLUKA (Vlachoudis, 2009; Ferrari et al., 2008) were used to characterize the neutronics performance and to perform the shielding assessment (Herrera-Martinez and Kadi, 2006; Cornell, 2003) of the EURISOLTarget Unit and to provide estimations of dose rate and activation of different components, in view of the radiation safety assessment of the facility.
