Criticality experiments for validation of cross sections: the 237Np case

237Np is one of the actinides which is most abundantly produced in present reactors, and it could be a good candidate for incineration due to its long life time. However this requires a good knowledge of neutron cross sections. The n_TOF collaboration has carried out a fission cross section measurem...
