Detailed Study of the Cu(p,Ni Reaction and Constraints on Its Astrophysical Reaction Rate
E. Lopez-Saavedra, M. L. Avila, W. -J. Ong +20
The CuNi reaction plays an important role in explosive astrophysical scenarios such as Type I X-ray bursts and the -process in neutrino-driven winds followin…
Direct Measurement of the CuNi Excitation Function to Constrain the Ni--Cu Cycle Strength and Its Impact on Explosive Nucleosynthesis
E. Lopez-Saavedra, M. L. Avila, W. -J. Ong +21
A new direct measurement of the 59Cu(p,a)56Ni excitation function from 2.43-5.88 MeV in the center-of-mass was performed in inverse kinematics using the high-efficiency MUSIC activ…
Study of the Ar()K reaction rate via proton scattering on K, and its impact on properties of modeled X-Ray bursts
A. Lauer-Coles, C. M. Deibel, J. C. Blackmon +21
Background: Type I X-Ray bursts (XRBs) are energetic stellar explosions that occur on the surface of a neutron star in an accreting binary system with a low-mass H/He-rich companio…
First direct measurement constraining the Ar(,p)K reaction cross section for mixed hydrogen and helium burning in accreting neutron stars
J. Browne, K. A. Chipps, K. Schmidt +25
The rate of the final step in the astrophysical p-process, the Ar(,\textit{p})K reaction, suffers from large uncertainties due to lack of experimental data, des…
Quenching of Single-Particle Strength in A=15 Nuclei
B. P. Kay, T. L. Tang, I. A. Tolstukhin +17
Absolute cross sections for the addition of - and -wave neutrons to C and N have been determined simultaneously via the (,) reaction at 10 MeV/u. The diff…
Horizons: Nuclear Astrophysics in the 2020s and Beyond
H. Schatz, A. D. Becerril Reyes, A. Best +162
Nuclear Astrophysics is a field at the intersection of nuclear physics and astrophysics, which seeks to understand the nuclear engines of astronomical objects and the origin of the…
