31. A Target Design Laboratory for Nuclear Astrophysics Experiments

Pamela Teubig (LIP)

6/11/24, 9:00 AM

Nuclear astrophysics is at the frontier between nuclear physics and astrophysics aiming to understand the creation of the elements in the universe. Nuclear reaction networks require the input from nuclear cross sections, which have to be determined experimentally by mimicking conditions similar to the ones encountered in the stars that is experiments in the low energy spectrum (generally below...

33. Experimental study of $^6$He Coulomb breakup as an indirect measurement of $^4$He($2n,\gamma$)$^6$He reaction rate for the astrophysical r-process

Mr Angel Miguel Sanchez Benitez (Centro de Estudios Avanzados en Física, Matemáticas y Computación (CEAFMC), Department of Integrated Sciences, University of Huelva, Spain)

6/11/24, 9:30 AM

Compact binary mergers as Binary Neutron Star Mergers (BNSM) have attracted a lot of attention in recent years as the most likely site for r-process (rapid neutron capture) nucleosynthesis [1] and for the emission of gravitational waves [2]. Recently there has been reported experimental evidence of r-process nucleosynthesis in a BNSM identified as the origin of the gravitational-wave source...

42. The 9,11Li+64Zn experiment within a systematical nuclear reactions program

Alejandro Vegas Díaz (Universidad de Sevilla)

6/11/24, 10:00 AM

Exotic nuclei play a fundamental role in the stellar processes, such as the r-process in the stellar nucleosynthesis. Their study on Earth allows us to test the validity of models used with stable nuclei in these species, in order to better understand such processes. In this talk, we will discuss the experiment S1847, where the 9,11Li + 64Zn reactions were measured, for the first time. We will...

41. Investigation of cluster structure effects in light nuclei with elastic scattering

Pedro Luiz Domingues Magro (Universidade de São Paulo)

6/11/24, 10:30 AM

The description of the elastic scattering cross-section is very sensitive not only to the interaction potential between the projectile and the target nuclei, but also on and their structure. Therefore, elastic scattering measurements have been used to extract information about the dynamics and structures of the involved nuclei [1]. In this contribution, we are going to present the results of...
