Neutrinos and Nuclear Astrophysics at LUNA
AbstractNuclear astrophysics plays an important role in understanding open issues of neutrino physics. As an example, the two key reactions of the solar p-p chain 3He(3He, 2p)4He and 3He(4He, γ)7Be have been studied at low energy with LUNA, providing an accurate experimental footing for the Standard Solar Model and consequently to study the neutrino ...

Nuclear astrophysics at DRAGON [PDF]
The DRAGON recoil separator is located at the ISAC facility at TRIUMF, Vancouver. It is designed to measure radiative alpha and proton capture reactions of astrophysical importance. Over the last years, the DRAGON collaboration has measured several reactions using both radioactive and high-intensity stable beams.

Felsenkeller shallow-underground accelerator laboratory for nuclear astrophysics
Favored by the low background in underground laboratories, low-background accelerator-based experiments are an important tool to study nuclear reactions involving stable charged particles. This technique has been used for many years with great success at
