Reaction rate sensitivity of 44Ti production in massive stars and implications of a thick target yield measurement for 40Ca(alpha,gamma)44Ti
Hoffman, R. D.; Sheets, S. A.; Burke, J. T.; Scielzo, N. D.; Rauscher, T. (SISSA, 2011-01)The dynamic synergy between observation, theory, and experiment developed over many years around the field of gamma-ray astronomy has as its ultimate goal observations of specific radionuclides informing our understanding ... -
Reaction rate sensitivity of Ti-44 production in massive stars and implications of a thick target yield measurement of Ca-40(alpha, gamma)Ti-44
Hoffman, R. D.; Sheets, S. A.; Burke, J. T.; Scielzo, N. D.; Rauscher, T.; Norman, E. B.; Tumey, S.; Brown, T. A.; Grant, P. G.; Hurst, A. M.; Phair, L.; Stoyer, M. A.; Wooddy, T.; Fisker, J. L.; Bleuel, D. (2010-06-01)We evaluate two dominant nuclear reaction rates and their uncertainties that affect Ti-44 production in explosive nucleosynthesis. Experimentally we develop thick target yields for the Ca-40(alpha, gamma)Ti-44 reaction at ...
