Abstract
The 41Ca(n,alpha)38Ar reaction cross section has been studied with resonance neutrons at the GELINA neutron facility of the Institute for Reference Materials and Measurements in Geel (Belgium) from a few eV up to 100 keV. A Frisch-gridded ionization chamber with methane as detector gas was installed at a 30 meter long flight path. About 20 resonances have been identified. From the cross section data obtained, the Maxwellian averaged cross section (MACS) as a function of stellar temperature has been calculated by numerical integration.
