Determination of (n,gamma) reaction rates at s-process branching points via their inverse reactions

We present our method to determine the (n,gamma) reaction rates of s-process branching point nuclei using data of the inverse (gamma,n) reaction. As an example, we selected Zr-95. The analysis of the data of the reaction Zr-96(gamma,n)Zr-95 is still in progress. Therefore, we describe the characteristics of this reaction and first preliminary results.
