The Neutron Time Of Flight (n_TOF) facility is a neutron spectrometer at CERN, with the aim of studying neutron-nucleus interactions over a range of kinetic energies, using the time of flight method. The research conducted at the facility has applications in nuclear technology and nuclear astrophysics.[1] The facility has been in operation at CERN since 2001, following a proposal from the former Director General, Carlo Rubbia, for a high-intensity neutron source.[2][3]
