The Astrophysical S-Factor of the Reaction ${}^7$be(p,$\gamma$)${}^8$B in the Direct Capture Model

Abstract

The astrophysical $S$-factor for the reaction ${}^7$Be(p,$\gamma$)${}^8$B up to an energy of 2~MeV (c.m.) and the capture cross section of ${}^7$Li(n,$\gamma$)${}^8$Li up to 1~MeV (c.m.) are calculated using the Direct Capture model (DC). Both calculations are in good agreement with experimental data.
