Proton induced reaction cross section measurements on Se isotopes for the astrophysical p process
Gy. Gyurky, Zs. Fulop, E. Somorjai +6
As a continuation of a systematic study of reactions relevant to the astrophysical p process, the cross sections of the 74,76Se(p,gamma)75,77Br and 82Se(p,n)82Br reactions have bee…
Observing Nucleon Decay in Lead Perchlorate
R. N. Boyd, T. Rauscher, S. D. Reitzner +1
Lead perchlorate, part of the OMNIS supernova neutrino detector, contains two nuclei, 208Pb and 35Cl, that might be used to study nucleon decay. Both would produce signatures that…
Nuclear Partition Functions at Temperatures Exceeding 10^10 K
T. Rauscher
Nuclear partition functions were calculated for a grid of temperatures from 1.2x10^10 K to 2.75x10^11 K (1<=kT<=24 MeV) within a Fermi-gas approach, including all nuclides from the…
The Importance of Parity-Dependence of the Nuclear Level Density in the Prediction of Astrophysical Reaction Rates
D. Mocelj, T. Rauscher, G. Martinez-Pinedo +1
A simple description for obtaining the parity distribution of nuclear levels in the pf + g9/2 shell as a function of excitation energy was recently derived. We implement this in a…
Reaction Rates and Nuclear Properties Relevant for Nucleosynthesis in Massive Stars and Far From Stability
T. Rauscher, C. Froehlich, K. H. Guber
Explosive nuclear burning in astrophysical environments produces unstable nuclei which again can be targets for subsequent reactions. In addition, it involves a large number of sta…
