First measurement of the low-energy direct capture in 20Ne(p, γ)21Na and improved energy and strength of the Ecm = 368 keV resonance
E. Masha, L. Barbieri, J. Skowronski +48
The reaction is the slowest in the NeNa cycle and directly affects the abundances of the Ne and Na isotopes in a variety of astrophysical sites. Her…
New proton-capture rates on carbon isotopes and their impact on the astrophysical ratio
J. Skowronski, A. Boeltzig, G. F. Ciani +43
The ratio is a significant indicator of nucleosynthesis and mixing processes during hydrogen burning in stars. Its value mainly depends on the…
First direct limit on the 334 keV resonance strength in the Ne(α,γ)Mg reaction
D. Piatti, E. Masha, M. Aliotta +44
In stars, the fusion of Ne and He may produce either Mg, with the emission of a neutron, or Mg and a ray. At high temperature, the () channel domi…
Underground Measurements of Nuclear Reaction Cross-Sections Relevant to AGB Stars
Chemseddine Ananna, Francesco Barile, Axel Boeltzig +11
Nuclear reaction cross sections are essential ingredients to predict the evolution of AGB stars and understand their impact on the chemical evolution of our Galaxy. Unfortunately,…
The study of key reactions shaping the post main-sequence evolution of massive stars in underground facilities
F. Ferraro, G. F. Ciani, A. Boeltzig +2
The chemical evolution of the Universe and several phases of the stellar life are regulated by minute nuclear reactions. The key point for each of these reactions is the value of c…
Shell and explosive hydrogen burning
A. Boeltzig, C. G. Bruno, F. Cavanna +10
The nucleosynthesis of light elements, from helium up to silicon, mainly occurs in Red Giant and Asymptotic Giant Branch stars and Novae. The relative abundances of the synthesized…
