The Trojan Horse Method: A Nuclear Physics Tool for Astrophysics
Annual Review of Nuclear and Particle Science, 2021 The Trojan Horse Method (THM) represents an indirect path to determine the bare nucleus astrophysical S-factor for reactions among charged particles at astrophysical energies. This is achieved by measuring the quasi-free cross section of a suitable three-
