Nuclear Physics Mid Term Plan at LNGS
R. Buompane, F. Cavanna, C. Curceanu +59
The Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare-Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS) is one of the largest underground physics laboratory, a very peculiar environment suited for ex…
Improved -factor of the C(p,)N reaction at 330-740 keV and parameters of resonances at 448 keV and 551 keV
J. Skowronski, E. Masha, D. Piatti +23
The C(p,)N reaction is the second reaction of the CNO cycle. This cycle takes place in our Sun and fuels massive, Red, and Asymptotic Giant Branch stars. The $^{1…
Advances in Radiative Capture Studies at LUNA with a Segmented BGO Detector
Jakub Skowronski, Riccardo Maria Gesuè, Axel Boeltzig +43
Studies of charged-particle reactions for low-energy nuclear astrophysics require high sensitivity, which can be achieved by means of detection setups with high efficiency and low…
Underground nuclear astrophysics: Status and recent results from Felsenkeller laboratory
Eliana Masha, Daniel Bemmerer, Axel Boeltzig +4
For almost three decades it has been known that the study of astro-physically important nuclear reactions between stable nuclei requires the use of low-background, underground acce…
Status and future directions for direct cross-section measurements of the 13C(a,n)16O reaction for astrophysics
L. Csedreki, Gy. Gyürky, D. Rapagnani +45
The 13C(a,n)16O reaction is the main neutron source of the s-process taking place in thermally pulsing AGB stars and it is one of the main candidate sources of neutrons for the i-p…
Improved direct measurement of low-energy resonances in the Ne(p,)Na reaction
R. S. Sidhu, F. Casaburo, E. Masha +57
In the nova temperature range, 0.1 GK 0.4 GK, several low-energy resonances dominate the Ne(p,)Na reaction rate, which is currently affected by large unce…
