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…
The nature of the Li enrichment in the most Li-rich giant star
Hong-Liang Yan, Jian-Rong Shi, Yu-Tao Zhou +13
About one percent of giants\upcite{Brown1989} are detected to have anomalously high lithium (Li) abundances in their atmospheres, conflicting directly with the prediction of the st…
Reaction rates of Ge()As and As()Se and the extent of nucleosynthesis in type I X-ray bursts
Y. H. Lam, J. J. He, A. Parikh +7
The extent of nucleosynthesis in models of type I X-ray bursts and the associated impact on the energy released in these explosive events are sensitive to nuclear masses and reacti…
Investigation of thermonuclear Ne(,)Na rate via resonant elastic scattering of Na+
L. Y. Zhang, J. J. He, A. Parikh +22
The Ne(,)Na reaction is thought to be one of the key breakout reactions from the hot CNO cycles to the rp-process in type I x-ray bursts. In this work, the reso…
Constraining nova observables: direct measurements of resonance strengths in 33S(p,γ)34Cl
J. Fallis, A. Parikh, P. F. Bertone +32
The 33S(p,γ)34Cl reaction is important for constraining predictions of certain isotopic abundances in oxygen-neon novae. Models currently predict as much as 150 times the solar abu…
The 18Ne(a,p)21Na breakout reaction in x-ray bursts: experimental determination of spin-parities for alpha resonances in 22Mg via resonant elastic scattering of 21Na+p
J. J. He, L. Y. Zhang, A. Parikh +20
The Ne(,)Na reaction provides a pathway for breakout from the hot CNO cycles to the -process in type I x-ray bursts. To better determine this astrophysical…
New determination of the 13C(a, n)16O reaction rate and its influence on the s-process nucleosynthesis in AGB stars
B. Guo, Z. H. Li, M. Lugaro +21
We present a new measurement of the -spectroscopic factor () and the asymptotic normalization coefficient (ANC) for the 6.356 MeV 1/2 subthreshold state of O thr…
