A new study of the Ne(p,)Na reaction deep underground: Feasibility, setup, and first observation of the 186 keV resonance
F. Cavanna, R. Depalo, M. -L. Menzel +28
The Ne(p,)Na reaction takes part in the neon-sodium cycle of hydrogen burning. This cycle is active in asymptotic giant branch stars as well as in novae and contri…
A new study of Mg(,n)Si angular distributions at = 3 - 5 MeV
A. Caciolli, T. Marchi, R. Depalo +15
The observation of Al gives us the proof of active nucleosynthesis in the Milky Way. However the identification of the main producers of Al is still a matter of debat…
The worldwide NORM production and a fully automated gamma-ray spectrometer for their characterization
G. Xhixha, GP. Bezzon, C. Broggini +14
Materials containing radionuclides of natural origin, which is modified by human made processes and being subject to regulation because of their radioactivity are known as NORM. We…
The 14N(p,gamma)15O reaction studied with a composite germanium detector
M. Marta, A. Formicola, D. Bemmerer +26
The rate of the carbon-nitrogen-oxygen (CNO) cycle of hydrogen burning is controlled by the 14N(p,gamma)15O reaction. The reaction proceeds by capture to the ground states and seve…
Constraining the S factor of 15N(p,g)16O at Astrophysical Energies
P. J. LeBlanc, G. Imbriani, J. Goerres +44
The 15N(p,g)16O reaction represents a break out reaction linking the first and second cycle of the CNO cycles redistributing the carbon and nitrogen abundances into the oxygen rang…
New experimental study of low-energy (p,gamma) resonances in magnesium isotopes
B. Limata, F. Strieder, A. Formicola +30
Proton captures on Mg isotopes play an important role in the Mg-Al cycle active in stellar H shell burning. In particular, the strengths of low-energy resonances with E < 200 keV i…
