The Status and Future of Direct Nuclear Reaction Measurements for Stellar Burning

M. Aliotta, R. Buompane, M. Couder +22

The study of stellar burning began just over 100 years ago. Nonetheless, we do not yet have a detailed picture of the nucleosynthesis within stars and how nucleosynthesis impacts s…

Measurement of 1323 and 1487 keV resonances in 15N(α, γ)19F with the recoil separator ERNA

A. Di Leva, G. Imbriani, R. Buompane +16

The origin of fluorine is a widely debated issue. Nevertheless, the ^{15}N(α,γ)^{19}F reaction is a common feature among the various production channels so far proposed. Its reacti…

The 198Au beta-half-life in the metal Au revisited

K. Fortak, R. Kunz, L. Gialanella +3

The half-life of the beta-decay of 198Au has been measured for room temperature and 12 K. The resulting values of T(RT) = 2.684 +- 0.004 d and T(12 K) = 2.687 +- 0.005 d agree well…

Solar fusion cross sections II: the pp chain and CNO cycles

E. G. Adelberger, A. B. Balantekin, D. Bemmerer +45

We summarize and critically evaluate the available data on nuclear fusion cross sections important to energy generation in the Sun and other hydrogen-burning stars and to solar neu…

Study of the 12C+12C fusion reactions near the Gamow energy

T. Spillane, F. Raiola, S. Zeng +8

The fusion reactions 12C(12C,a)20Ne and 12C(12C,p)23Na have been studied from E = 2.10 to 4.75 MeV by gamma-ray spectroscopy using a C target with ultra-low hydrogen contamination.…

First direct measurement of the total cross section of 12C(alpha,gamma)16O

D. Schuermann, A. Di Leva, L. Gialanella +14

The total cross section of 12C(alpha,gamma)16O was measured for the first time by a direct and ungated detection of the 16O recoils. This measurement in inverse kinematics using th…
