Stellar neutron capture rates – key data for the s process
Neutron reactions are responsible for the formation of the elements heavier than iron. The corresponding scenarios relate to the Heand Cburning phases of stellar evolution (s process) and to supernova explosions (r and p processes). The s process, which is characterized by low neutron densities, operates in or near the valley of β-stability and has produced about half of the elemental abundance...
متن کاملASTROPHYSICAL NEUTRON CAPTURE RATES IN s– AND r–PROCESS NUCLEOSYNTHESIS
Astrophysical neutron capture rates of light and heavy nuclei have been measured and calculated. For the measurements the activation technique was applied at the 3.75 MV Karlsruhe Van de Graaff accelerator, and at the Geel electron linear accelerator (GELINA) the time–of–flight (TOF) method was used. The calculations were performed using direct and compound nuclear capture models.
متن کاملStellar weak decay rates in neutron-deficient medium-mass nuclei
Weak decay rates under stellar density and temperature conditions holding at the rapid proton-capture process are studied in neutron-deficient medium-mass waiting-point nuclei extending from Ni up to Sn. Neighboring isotopes to these waiting-point nuclei are also included in the analysis. The nuclear structure part of the problem is described within a deformed Skyrme Hartree-Fock + BCS + quasip...
متن کاملNeutron Capture and Neutron Halos
The connection between the neutron halo observed in light neutron rich nuclei and the neutron radiative capture process is outlined. We show how nuclear structure information such as spectroscopic factors and external components of the radial wave function of loosely bound states can be derived from the neutron capture cross section. The link between the direct radiative capture and the Coulomb...
متن کامل10B Concentration, Phantom Size and Tumor Location Dependent Dose Enhancement and Neutron Spectra in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy
Background: The amount of average dose enhancement in tumor loaded with 10B may vary due to various factors in boron neutron capture therapy.Objective: This study aims to evaluate dose enhancement in tumor loaded with 10B under influence of various factors and investigate the dependence of this dose enhancement on neutron spectra changes.Material and Methods: In this simulation stud...
