O(p,)F Reaction and the C and O Isotopic Ratios in Red Giant Branch Stars
D. Robb, P. McGlynn, M. Aliotta +55
The O/O isotopic ratio is a widely used tracer of nucleosynthesis and mixing processes in red giant stars. Its value depends on the rates of the proton-capture reacti…
Detector characterization for a new C+C reaction study at LUNA
R. M. Gesùè, S. Turkat, J. Skowroński +50
The C+C fusion reaction plays a crucial role in stellar evolution, including the occurrence of supernova explosions, and in the synthesis of the chemical elements. Ho…
A prototype neutron-detector array for future deep-underground s-process studies
Thomas Chillery, David Rapagnani, Chemseddine Ananna +12
We report a novel neutron-detection approach employing an EJ-309 liquid scintillator surrounded by six 3He proportional counters. Tests were performed at the FRANZ facility of the…
Improved direct measurement of low-energy resonances in the Ne(p,)Na reaction
R. S. Sidhu, F. Casaburo, E. Masha +57
In the nova temperature range, 0.1 GK 0.4 GK, several low-energy resonances dominate the Ne(p,)Na reaction rate, which is currently affected by large uncer…
The Ne(,n)Mg reaction -- state of the art, astrophysics, and perspectives
Andreas Best, Philip Adsley, Ryan Amberger +11
One of the most important stellar neutron sources is the Ne(,n)Mg reaction, which gets activated both during the helium intershell burning in asymptotic giant bran…
Direct measurement of the 13C(α,n)16O cross section into the s-process Gamow peak
G. F. Ciani, L. Csedreki, D. Rapagnani +45
One of the main neutron sources for the astrophysical s-process is the reaction 13C(α,n)16O, taking place in thermally pulsing Asymptotic Giant Branch stars at temperatures around…
