The Database of Maxwellian Averaged Neutron Capture Cross Section (MACS) of the CERN Neutron Time-of-flight Facility (n_TOF) for Nuclear Astrophysics
Description
We construct a database for all available isotopes' Maxwellian-Averaged Cross-Sections (MACS) measured at the CERN n_TOF facility. In addition to the experimental data, the database contains theoretical values calculated by the TALYS-2.0 program, as well as evaluated values from other libraries, for reference. Quantities such as Q-value, reaction rate, and stellar enhancement factor (SEF) are included for completeness. Our programming enables quick updates and modifications to data, with the entire process automated. It requires minimal input and provides a high degree of freedom to add comments or change the plotting style. The database contains complete information ready for theoretical simulation of nuclear-astrophysical processes, and MACS measurements at the CERN n_TOF facility are, to our knowledge, the newest and of high resolution.
