A new approach to monitor 13C-targets degradation in situ for 13C(alpha,n)16O cross-section measurements at LUNA
G. F. Ciani, L. Csedreki, J. Balibrea-Correa +46
Direct measurements of reaction cross-sections at astrophysical energies often require the use of solid targets able to withstand high ion beam currents for extended periods of tim…
Direct capture cross section and the = 71 and 105 keV resonances in the Ne()Na reaction
F. Ferraro, M. P. Takács, D. Piatti +41
The Ne()Na reaction, part of the neon-sodium cycle of hydrogen burning, may explain the observed anticorrelation between sodium and oxygen abundances in globular…
Effect of beam energy straggling on resonant yield in thin gas targets: The cases Ne(p,γ)Na and N(p,γ)O
D. Bemmerer, F. Cavanna, R. Depalo +25
When deriving resonance strengths using the thick-target yield approximation, for very narrow resonances it may be necessary to take beam energy straggling into account. This appli…
A high-efficiency gas target setup for underground experiments, and redetermination of the branching ratio of the 189.5 keV resonance
F. Ferraro, M. P. Takács, D. Piatti +42
The experimental study of nuclear reactions of astrophysical interest is greatly facilitated by a low-background, high-luminosity setup. The Laboratory for Underground Nuclear Astr…
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…
Three new low-energy resonances in the Ne(p,)Na reaction
F. Cavanna, R. Depalo, M. Aliotta +31
The Ne(p,)Na reaction takes part in the neon-sodium cycle of hydrogen burning. This cycle affects the synthesis of the elements between Ne and Al in…
Cosmic-ray induced background intercomparison with actively shielded HPGe detectors at underground locations
T. Szücs, D. Bemmerer, T. P. Reinhardt +6
The main background above 3\,MeV for in-beam nuclear astrophysics studies with -ray detectors is caused by cosmic-ray induced secondaries. The two commonly used suppression meth…
