Microscopic description of ${}^{12}$C+${}^{12,13}$C fusion reactions at nuclear astrophysical energies

K. Nagao, K. Hagino, K. Uzawa

The ${}^{12}$C + ${}^{12}$C fusion reaction plays a key role in several astrophysical phenomena. However, it is difficult to determine its cross sections in the relevant energy region…
