The High Priority Request List of the Nuclear Energy Agency, which lists the most important nuclear data requirements, includes also the neutron capture cross sections of fissile isotopes such as 233,235U and 239,241Pu. A specific experimental setup has been used at the CERN n_TOF facility for the measurement of the neutron capture cross section of 235U by a set of micromegas fission detectors placed inside a segmented BaF2 Total Absorption Calorimeter.This work was supported in part by the Spanish national company for radioactive waste management ENRESA, through the CIEMAT-ENRESA agreements on ’Transmutacion de residuos ´ radiactivos de alta actividad’ the Spanish Plan Nacional de I+D+i de F´ısica de Part´ıculas (project FPA2014-53290-C2-1) and the CHANDA project of the 7 th Framework Programme.application/pdfen-AU© 2017 The Authorshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Measurement of the neutron capture cross section of the fissile isotope 235U with the CERN n-TOF total absorption calorimeter and a fission tagging based on micromegas detectors2017-09-1310.1051/epjconf/2017146110212019-08-04Creative Commons Attribution License 4.0
