First direct measurement of the 64.5 keV resonance strength in O(p,)F reaction
R. M. Gesuè, G. F. Ciani, D. Piatti +50
The CNO cycle is one of the most important nuclear energy sources in stars. At temperatures of hydrostatic H-burning (20 MK T 80 MK) the O(p,)F reaction ra…
First measurement of the low-energy direct capture in 20Ne(p, γ)21Na and improved energy and strength of the Ecm = 368 keV resonance
E. Masha, L. Barbieri, J. Skowronski +48
The reaction is the slowest in the NeNa cycle and directly affects the abundances of the Ne and Na isotopes in a variety of astrophysical sites. Her…
New proton-capture rates on carbon isotopes and their impact on the astrophysical ratio
J. Skowronski, A. Boeltzig, G. F. Ciani +43
The ratio is a significant indicator of nucleosynthesis and mixing processes during hydrogen burning in stars. Its value mainly depends on the…
First direct limit on the 334 keV resonance strength in the Ne(α,γ)Mg reaction
D. Piatti, E. Masha, M. Aliotta +44
In stars, the fusion of Ne and He may produce either Mg, with the emission of a neutron, or Mg and a ray. At high temperature, the () channel domi…
Underground Measurements of Nuclear Reaction Cross-Sections Relevant to AGB Stars
Chemseddine Ananna, Francesco Barile, Axel Boeltzig +11
Nuclear reaction cross sections are essential ingredients to predict the evolution of AGB stars and understand their impact on the chemical evolution of our Galaxy. Unfortunately,…
Ne and Na ejecta from intermediate-mass stars: The impact of the new LUNA rate for Ne(p,)Na
A. Slemer, P. Marigo, D. Piatti +36
We investigate the impact of the new LUNA rate for the nuclear reaction NeNa on the chemical ejecta of intermediate-mass stars, with particular focus on the ther…
