The $^{168}mathrm{Yb}$ resonance parameters, ${mathrm{ensuremath{Gamma}}}_{ensuremath{gamma}}$ and ${mathrm{ensuremath{Gamma}}}_{n}$, show significant discrepancies between these evaluated nuclear data libraries, while existing experimental data remain insufficient to resolve them. In this study, the ($n,ensuremath{gamma}$) yield of $^{mathrm{nat}}mathrm{Yb}$ is measured at the Back-n facility of the Chinese Spallation Neutron Source using the time-of-flight method. The ${mathrm{ensuremath{Gamma}}}_{ensuremath{gamma}}$ and ${mathrm{ensuremath{Gamma}}}_{n}$ parameters of $^{168}mathrm{Yb}$ are extracted by the multilevel $R$-matrix Bayesian code sammywithin the energy range of 0.1--300 eV. Both the ${mathrm{ensuremath{Gamma}}}_{ensuremath{gamma}}$ and ${mathrm{ensuremath{Gamma}}}_{n}$ parameters at three resonance peaks of 0.58, 22.53, and 27.17 eV are obtained successfully. Among them, the ${mathrm{ensuremath{Gamma}}}_{ensuremath{gamma}}$ value at 27.17 eV is experimentally extracted to be 65.88 $ifmmodepmelsetextpmfi{}$ 5.80 meV for the first time. These resonance results are further compared with the available evaluated and experimental data. It is found that the extracted ${mathrm{ensuremath{Gamma}}}_{ensuremath{gamma}}$ values are in good agreement with the nuclear data libraries ENDF/B-VIII.0, JENDL-4.0, BROND-3.1, and JEFF-3.3. Meanwhile, the extracted ${mathrm{ensuremath{Gamma}}}_{n}$ value at 0.58 eV is consistent with TENDL-2019, whereas the ${mathrm{ensuremath{Gamma}}}_{n}$ values at two other resonance peaks are different from the existing data.

This radioisotope has seen a very fast growth of usage in nuclear medicine in recent years due to its outstanding properties. New data on this reaction could provide useful information for production at new facilities. We aim to resolve resonances in the &lt;c:math xmlns:c=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\"&gt;&lt;c:mrow&gt;&lt;c:mmultiscripts&gt;&lt;c:mi&gt;Yb&lt;/c:mi&gt;&lt;c:mprescripts/&gt;&lt;c:none/&gt;&lt;c:mn&gt;176&lt;/c:mn&gt;&lt;/c:mmultiscripts&gt;&lt;c:mo&gt;(&lt;/c:mo&gt;&lt;c:mi&gt;n&lt;/c:mi&gt;&lt;c:mo&gt;,&lt;/c:mo&gt;&lt;c:mi&gt;γ&lt;/c:mi&gt;&lt;c:mo&gt;)&lt;/c:mo&gt;&lt;c:mmultiscripts&gt;&lt;c:mi&gt;Yb&lt;/c:mi&gt;&lt;c:mprescripts/&gt;&lt;c:none/&gt;&lt;c:mn&gt;177&lt;/c:mn&gt;&lt;/c:mmultiscripts&gt;&lt;/c:mrow&gt;&lt;/c:math&gt; reaction for the first time. Previous capture measurement provided data at thermal point and encompassed integral measurements in the range from 3 keV to 1 MeV, where three time-of-flight measurements are available, but with low resolution to resolve the resonances. Transmission measurements from the 1970s resolved and analyzed some resonances. We measure the neutron capture cross section of &lt;d:math xmlns:d=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\"&gt;&lt;d:mrow&gt;&lt;d:mmultiscripts&gt;&lt;d:mi&gt;Yb&lt;/d:mi&gt;&lt;d:mprescripts/&gt;&lt;d:none/&gt;&lt;d:mn&gt;176&lt;/d:mn&gt;&lt;/d:mmultiscripts&gt;&lt;d:mo&gt;(&lt;/d:mo&gt;&lt;d:mi&gt;n&lt;/d:mi&gt;&lt;d:mo&gt;,&lt;/d:mo&gt;&lt;d:mi&gt;γ&lt;/d:mi&gt;&lt;d:mo&gt;)&lt;/d:mo&gt;&lt;d:mmultiscripts&gt;&lt;d:mi&gt;Yb&lt;/d:mi&gt;&lt;d:mprescripts/&gt;&lt;d:none/&gt;&lt;d:mn&gt;177&lt;/d:mn&gt;&lt;/d:mmultiscripts&gt;&lt;/d:mrow&gt;&lt;/d:math&gt; by means of the time-of-flight technique at the Experimental Area 1 of the n_TOF facility at CERN using an enriched &lt;e:math xmlns:e=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\"&gt;&lt;e:mrow&gt;&lt;e:munder&gt;&lt;e:mmultiscripts&gt;&lt;e:mi&gt;Yb&lt;/e:mi&gt;&lt;e:mprescripts/&gt;&lt;e:none/&gt;&lt;e:mn&gt;176&lt;/e:mn&gt;&lt;/e:mmultiscripts&gt;&lt;e:mn&gt;2&lt;/e:mn&gt;&lt;/e:munder&gt;&lt;e:msub&gt;&lt;e:mi mathvariant=\"normal\"&gt;O&lt;/e:mi&gt;&lt;e:mn&gt;3&lt;/e:mn&gt;&lt;/e:msub&gt;&lt;/e:mrow&gt;&lt;/e:math&gt; sample and an array of four &lt;g:math xmlns:g=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\"&gt;&lt;g:mrow&gt;&lt;g:msub&gt;&lt;g:mi mathvariant=\"normal\"&gt;C&lt;/g:mi&gt;&lt;g:mn&gt;6&lt;/g:mn&gt;&lt;/g:msub&gt;&lt;g:msub&gt;&lt;g:mi mathvariant=\"normal\"&gt;D&lt;/g:mi&gt;&lt;g:mn&gt;6&lt;/g:mn&gt;&lt;/g:msub&gt;&lt;/g:mrow&gt;&lt;/g:math&gt; liquid scintillation detectors.

Both bromine isotopes are $ensuremath{beta}$-delayed neutron emitters that have large cumulative fission yields and were identified as top-priority cases for total absorption study by the Nuclear Energy Agency in 2007. Our investigations corroborate that the decay schemes of $^{87}mathrm{Br}$ and $^{88}mathrm{Br}$ suffer from the so-called pandemonium effect. Unique MTAS properties enable direct neutron measurements. We present MTAS-derived $ensuremath{beta}$-delayed neutron spectra, $ensuremath{beta}$-delayed neutron emission probabilities of ${P}_{n}(^{87}mathrm{Br})$ $=2.36(24)%$, and ${P}_{n}(^{88}mathrm{Br})$ $=6.4(6)%$, and the $ensuremath{beta}$-delayed neutron transitions intensity of 4(2)% to the first excited $^{87}mathrm{Kr}$ state, populated in the $ensuremath{beta}$-neutron decay of $^{88}mathrm{Br}$. Incorporating new data into calculations of the electromagnetic decay heat component emitted during thermal neutron fission of $^{235}mathrm{U}$ and $^{239}mathrm{Pu}$ improves agreement with experimental data up to approximately 80 s after fission.
