Activation method combined with characteristic X-ray counting : A possibility to measure (alpha, gamma) cross sections on heavy p-nuclei
(2011-10-01)
For an improved modeling of the astrophysical nucleosynthesis of p-nuclei, low energy cross section data of alpha-induced reactions on heavy isotopes are needed. Technical difficulties hamper the experimental determination ...
Opportunities to constrain astrophysical reaction rates for the s-process via determination of the ground-state cross-sections
(2011-09-10)
Modern models of s-process nucleosynthesis in stars require stellar reaction rates of high precision. Most neutron-capture cross-sections in the s-process have been measured, and for an increasing number of reactions the ...
Neutron capture on Zr-94 : Resonance parameters and Maxwellian-averaged cross sections
(2011-07-15)
The neutron capture cross sections of the Zr isotopes play an important role in nucleosynthesis studies. The s-process reaction flow between the Fe seed and the heavier isotopes passes through the neutron magic nucleus ...
Au-197(n,gamma) cross section in the unresolved resonance region
(2011-03-17)
The cross section of the reaction Au-197(n,gamma) was measured with the time-of-flight technique at the n_TOF (neutron time-of-flight) facility in the unresolved resonance region between 5 and 400 keV using a pair of C6D6 ...
Determining reaction cross sections via characteristic X-ray detection : alpha-induced reactions on Tm-169 for the astrophysical gamma-process
(2011-01-17)
The cross sections of the Tm-169(alpha, gamma)Lu-173 and Tm-169(alpha,n)Lu-172 reactions have been measured first time using a new method, by detecting the characteristic X-ray radiation following the electron capture-decay ...
