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…
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…
A Comparative Analysis of R-Matrix Fitting: CN as Test Case
J. Skowronski, D. Piatti, D. Rapagnani +49
In nuclear astrophysics, the accurate determination of nuclear reaction cross sections at astrophysical energies is critical for understanding stellar evolution and nucleosynthesis…
First measurement of 87Rb(α, xn) cross sections at weak r-process energies in supernova ν-driven ejecta to investigate elemental abundances in low-metallicity stars
C. Fougères, M. L. Avila, A. Psaltis +18
Observed abundances of Z ~ 40 elements in metal-poor stars vary from star to star, indicating that the rapid and slow neutron capture processes may not contribute alone to the synt…
