The γ-process is a nucleosynthesis scenario that occurs during an explosion of a supernova and produces the proton-rich isotopes of elements between Se and Hg. The γ-process involves series of (γ,n), (γ,p) and (γ,α) reactions on pre-existing s-process seed nuclei. The reactions relevant for the γ-process can be studied in the laboratory via the inverse ones: the capture of protons or...
Since the 1950s, the development of nuclear studies in Mexico has had a notable presence at an international level. The proximity of important North American institutions has been, without a doubt, a determining factor in the development of nuclear sciences in Mexico. Many researchers of great relevance in the development of Nuclear Physics in Mexico for the second part of the 20th century...
