Solar fusion III: New data and theory for hydrogen-burning stars
B. Acharya, M. Aliotta, A. B. Balantekin +47
In stars that lie on the main sequence in the Hertzsprung-Russel diagram, like our sun, hydrogen is fused to helium in a number of nuclear reaction chains and series, such as the p…
Constraining the Be()B -factor with the new precise Be solar neutrino flux from Borexino
Marcell P. Takács, Daniel Bemmerer, Arnd R. Junghans +1
Among the solar fusion reactions, the rate of the Be()B reaction is one of the most difficult to determine rates. In a number of previous experiments, its astrophysica…
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…
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…
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…
First Direct Measurement of the ^{17}O(p,γ)^{18}F Reaction Cross-Section at Gamow Energies for Classical Novae
D. A. Scott, A. Caciolli, A. DiLeva +29
Classical novae are important contributors to the abundances of key isotopes, such as the radioactive ^{18}F, whose observation by satellite missions could provide constraints on n…
