Nuclear Astrophysics Deep Underground [PDF]

International Journal of Modern Physics: Conference Series, 2018
Cross sections of nuclear reactions relevant for astrophysics are crucial ingredients to understand the energy generation inside stars and the synthesis of the elements. At astrophysical energies, nuclear cross sections are often too small to be measured in laboratories on the Earth surface, where the signal would be overwhelmed by the cosmic-ray ...

The unreasonable effectiveness of experiments in constraining nova nucleosynthesis

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2014
Classical nova explosions arise from thermonuclear ignition in the envelopes of accreting white dwarfs in close binary star systems. Detailed observations of novae have stimulated numerous studies in theoretical astrophysics and experimental nuclear ...

First direct measurement of 12C(12C,n)23Mg at stellar energies

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2016
Neutrons produced by the carbon fusion reaction 12C(12C,n)23Mg play an important role in stellar nucleosynthesis. Past studies have shown large discrepancies between experimental data and theory, leading to an uncertain cross section extrapolation at ...

Nuclear astrophysics in storage rings [PDF]

Nuclear Physics A, 1997
Nuclear reaction cross sections are usually very small in typical astrophysical environments. It has been one of the major challenges of experimental nuclear astrophysics to assess the magnitude of these cross sections in the laboratory. For a successful experiment high luminosity beams are needed.

“Other” indirect methods for nuclear astrophysics

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
In the house of Trojan Horse Method (THM), I will say a few words about “other” indirect methods we use in Nuclear Physics for Astrophysics. In particular those using Rare Ion Beams that can be used to evaluate radiative proton capture reactions.

Nuclear Astrophysics with RI Beams at CRIB [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences
Radioactive-isotope (RI) beams are essential for studies on relevant astrophysical reactions involving RIs. RIs play important roles in high-temperature stellar environments, but the experimental study of RI-involving astrophysical reactions is still ...
