Direct determination of photodisintegration cross sections and the p-process

Abstract

Photon-induced reactions play a key role in the nucleosynthesis of heavy neutron-deficient nuclei, the so-called p-nuclei. In this paper we review the present status of experiments on photon-induced reactions at energies of astrophysical importance and their relevance to p-process modeling.
