Effect of beam energy straggling on resonant yield in thin gas targets: The cases Ne(p,γ)Na and N(p,γ)O
D. Bemmerer, F. Cavanna, R. Depalo +25
When deriving resonance strengths using the thick-target yield approximation, for very narrow resonances it may be necessary to take beam energy straggling into account. This appli…
Origin of meteoritic stardust unveiled by a revised proton-capture rate of O
M. Lugaro, A. I. Karakas, C. G. Bruno +34
Stardust grains recovered from meteorites provide high-precision snapshots of the isotopic composition of the stellar environment in which they formed. Attributing their origin to…
Improved Direct Measurement of the 64.5 keV Resonance Strength in the 17O(p,a)14N Reaction at LUNA
C. G. Bruno, D. A. Scott, M. Aliotta +32
The O(p,)N reaction plays a key role in various astrophysical scenarios, from asymptotic giant branch stars to classical novae. It affects the synthesis of rare is…
Three new low-energy resonances in the Ne(p,)Na reaction
F. Cavanna, R. Depalo, M. Aliotta +31
The Ne(p,)Na reaction takes part in the neon-sodium cycle of hydrogen burning. This cycle affects the synthesis of the elements between Ne and Al in…
Neutron-induced background by an alpha-beam incident on a deuterium gas target and its implications for the study of the 2H(alpha,gamma)6Li reaction at LUNA
M. Anders, D. Trezzi, A. Bellini +26
The production of the stable isotope Li-6 in standard Big Bang nucleosynthesis has recently attracted much interest. Recent observations in metal-poor stars suggest that a cosmolog…
Preparation and characterisation of isotopically enriched TaO targets for nuclear astrophysics studies
A. Caciolli, D. A. Scott, A. Di Leva +33
The direct measurement of reaction cross sections at astrophysical energies often requires the use of solid targets of known thickness, isotopic composition, and stoichiometry that…
