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…

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…

Women Scientists Who Made Nuclear Astrophysics

C. V. Hampton, M. Lugaro, P. Papakonstantinou +24

Female role models reduce the impact on women of stereotype threat, i.e., of being at risk of conforming to a negative stereotype about one's social, gender, or racial group. This…
