Scientific paper

Measurements of neutron capture on unstable nuclei are important for studies of s-process nucleosynthesis, nuclear waste transmutation, and stewardship science. A 160-element, 4π BaF2 detector array and neutron flight path has been designed to make capture measurements at the moderated spallation neutron source at LANSCE. Measurements can be made on as little as 1 mg of sample material over energies from thermal to near 100 keV. We will describe the design and construction status of the DANCE array and present flux measurements from the flight path commissioning experiment.
