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…
Shell and explosive hydrogen burning
A. Boeltzig, C. G. Bruno, F. Cavanna +10
The nucleosynthesis of light elements, from helium up to silicon, mainly occurs in Red Giant and Asymptotic Giant Branch stars and Novae. The relative abundances of the synthesized…
The impact of the revised ON reaction rate on O stellar abundances and yields
O. Straniero, C. G. Bruno, M. Aliotta +33
Context. Material processed by the CNO cycle in stellar interiors is enriched in 17O. When mixing processes from the stellar surface reach these layers, as occurs when stars become…
Direct measurement of low-energy Ne(p,)Na resonances
R. Depalo, F. Cavanna, M. Aliotta +30
The Ne(p,)Na reaction is the most uncertain process in the neon-sodium cycle of hydrogen burning. At temperatures relevant for nucleosynthesis in asymptotic giant…
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…
