Description

The GAINS spectrometer, an integral part of the GELINA neutron source of EC-JRC Geel, has played a pivotal role in advancing neutron inelastic scattering measurements and contributing to significant scientific inputs. For more than 20 years, GAINS allowed us to perform very reliable and high precision neutron inelastic cross section measurements on various low-to-medium mass nuclei. This talk explores the rich history of this spectrometer, from its inception to the present day, highlighting its key achievements and emphasizing its importance in nuclear data research.
