The Neutron Induced Fission Fragment Tracking Experiment

ORAL

Abstract

The Neutron Induced Fission Fragment Tracking Experiment will employ a novel, high granularity, pressurized time projection chamber (TPC) to measure ?ssion cross-sections of the major actinides to sub-1\% precision. This talk will present an overview of the design of the NIFFTE TPC, current status of the project and why we believe this device may produce a renaissance in low energy nuclear physics experiments.
