- The neutron capture cross section of 14C is of relevance for several nucleosynthesis scenarios such as inhomogeneous Big Bang models, neutron induced CNO cycles, and neutrino driven wind models for the r process. The 14C(n,gamma) reaction is also important for the validation of the Coulomb dissociation method, where the (n,gamma) cross section can be indirectly obtained via the time-reversed process. So far, the example of 14C is the only case with neutrons where both, direct measurement and indirect Coulomb dissociation, have been applied. Unfortunately, the interpretation is obscured by discrepancies between several experiments and theory. Therefore, we report on new direct measurements of the 14C(n,gamma) reaction with neutron energies ranging from 20 to 800 keV.

- The sorption of Pm (1 x 10(-9) M) onto TiO2 and goethite has been studied as a function of pH and Ionic strength (0.01, 0.1 M NaClO4) at ambient temperature under N-2 atmosphere. For both minerals studied there is no effect of the different ionic strengths and the sorption (log K-a vs. pH) increases with a slope of similar to2. At the same pH sorption is lower on the more positively (or less negatively) charged goethite (pH(pzc) = 8.4) than on the TiO2 (pH(pzc) = 6.2). A comparison to other trivalent cations sorbed on different substrates (made by extracting values from %-sorbed curves and calculating these to K-a) indicate a similar pH-dependence. The results have been fitted using a 1-pK basic Stern model with FITEQL [1]. An a priori restriction was that only one sorption reaction stoichiometry at a time was to be used to keep the number of parameters as small as possible. Outersphere and mono-, bi- and tri-dentate inner-sphere complexes were fitted. For each fit the value of the capacitance was varied to find the value that provided the best fit. Two different site densities were used: 1 site/nm(2) and 2.31 sites/nm(2). For the low site density the reaction which provides the best tit was: drop SOH0.5- + Pm+3 drop SOHPm2.5+for both minerals. At the high site density the same reaction fits for TiO2 while there are several reactions that are equivalent in the fit for goethite.
