Nuclear Physics Mid Term Plan at LNGS

R. Buompane, F. Cavanna, C. Curceanu +59

The Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare-Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS) is one of the largest underground physics laboratory, a very peculiar environment suited for ex…

Crust composition and the Shallow Heat Source in KS 1731-260

R. Jain, E. F. Brown, H. Schatz +11

The presence of a strong shallow heat source of unknown origin in accreting neutron star crusts has been inferred by analyzing X-ray observations of their cooling in quiescence. We…

Strength measurement of the = 830 keV resonance in reaction using a stilbene detector

Shahina, R. J. deBoer, J. Gorres +13

The interplay between the NeMg and the competing NeMg reactions determines the efficiency of the latter as a neutron source at the temperature…

Impact of Pycnonuclear Fusion Uncertainties on the Cooling of Accreting Neutron Star Crusts

R. Jain, E. F. Brown, H. Schatz +11

The observation of X-rays during quiescence from transiently accreting neutron stars provides unique clues about the nature of dense matter. This, however, requires extensive model…

Measurement of F(,)Ne reaction suggests CNO break-out in first stars

Liyong Zhang, Jianjun He, Richard J. deBoer +33

The origin of calcium production in the first stars (Pop III stars), which formed out of the primordial matter of the Big Bang, and their fates, remain most fascinating mysteries i…

Deep underground laboratory measurement of C(,)O in the Gamow windows of the - and -processes

B. Gao, T. Y. Jiao, Y. T. Li +71

The C(,)O reaction is the main neutron source for the slow-neutron-capture (s-) process in Asymptotic Giant Branch stars and for the intermediate (i-) process.…
