    SCOAP³ – Towards a second phase
    (Amsterdam : IOS Press, 2016) Kutz, Angelika
    The global partnership SCOAP3 (Sponsoring Consortium for Open Access Publishing in Particle Physics) has reached the conversion of high-quality subscription journals in the field of High-Energy Physics to Open Access through redirection of existing subscription funds by installing the SCOAP3 Gold Open Access Repository providing free access to scientific articles in the field of High Energy Physics. This article describes the steps taken to enable a second phase (2017–2019) of this international project based on an output-based (fair share) financing model.

    This article presents a few selected developments and future ideas related to the measurement of (n, γ) data of astrophysical interest at CERN n_TOF. The MC-aided analysis methodology for the use of low-efficiency radiation detectors in time-of-flight neutron-capture measurements is discussed, with particular emphasis on the systematic accuracy. Several recent instrumental advances are also presented, such as the development of total-energy detectors with γ-ray imaging capability for background suppression, and the development of an array of small-volume organic scintillators aimed at exploiting the high instantaneous neutron-flux of EAR2. Finally, astrophysics prospects related to the intermediate i neutron-capture process of nucleosynthesis are discussed in the context of the new NEAR activation area.
