Destruction of the cosmic γ -ray emitter Al 26 in massive stars: Study of the key Al 26 (n,p) reaction
(2021-08-30)
The Al26(n,p)Mg26 reaction is the key reaction impacting on the abundances of the cosmic γ-ray emitter Al26 produced in massive stars and impacts on the potential pollution of the early solar system with Al26 by asymptotic ...
Neutron Capture Cross Section of Unstable Ni-63 : Implications for Stellar Nucleosynthesis
(2013-01-08)
The Ni-63(n, gamma) cross section has been measured for the first time at the neutron time-of-flight facility n_TOF at CERN from thermal neutron energies up to 200 keV. In total, capture kernels of 12 (new) resonances were ...
