Determination of the astrophysical S factor for C-11(p,gamma)N-12 from the N-12 -> C-11+p asymptotic normalization coefficient
(American Physical Society, 2003)
The evolution of very low-metallicity, massive stars depends critically on the amount of CNO nuclei that they produce. Alternative paths from the slow 3alpha process to produce CNO seed nuclei could change their fate. The ...
Asymptotic normalization coefficients for N-14 C-13+p from C-13(He-3,d)N-14
(American Physical Society, 2000)
The C-13(He-3,d) N-14 proton transfer reaction has been measured at an incident energy of 26.3 MeV. Angular distributions for proton transfer to the ground state and excited states at 2.313 and 3.948 MeV in N-14 are analyzed ...
K(892)(*) resonance production in Au+Au and p+p collisions at root s(NN)=200 GeV
(American Physical Society, 2005)
The short-lived K(892)* resonance provides an efficient tool to probe properties of the hot and dense medium produced in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. We report measurements of K* in root s(NN)=200 GeV Au+Au and p+p ...
Elastic scattering of the proton drip-line nucleus F-17
(American Physical Society, 2005)
Precision data have been obtained for the elastic scattering of F-17 on C-12 and N-14 at 10 MeV/nucleon to clarify the reaction mechanism for loosely bound nuclei at low energies and to assess the validity of a double-folding ...
Photon and neutral pion production in Au plus Au collisions at root s(NN)=130 GeV
(American Physical Society, 2004)
We report inclusive photon measurements about midrapidity (ygammagamma decay channel. The fractional contribution of the pi(0)-->gammagamma decay to the inclusive photon spectrum decreases by 20%+/-5% between p(t)=1.65 ...
Experimental studies of di-jet survival and surface emission bias in Au plus Au collisions via angular correlations with respect to back-to-back leading hadrons
(American Physical Society, 2011)
We report first results from an analysis based on a new multi-hadron correlation technique, exploring jet-medium interactions and di-jet surface emission bias at the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). Pairs of ...
New astrophysical S factor for the (15)N(p,gamma)(16)O reaction via the asymptotic normalization coefficient (ANC) method
(American Physical Society, 2008)
The (15)N(p,gamma)(16)O reaction provides a path from the CN cycle to the CNO bi-cycle and CNO tri-cycle. The measured astrophysical factor for this reaction is dominated by resonant capture through two strong J(pi) = 1(-) ...
Event-wise (Pt) fluctuations in Au-Au collisions at root sNN=130 GeV
(American Physical Society, 2005)
We present the first large-acceptance measurement of event-wise mean transverse momentum fluctuations for Au-Au collisions at nucleon-nucleon center-of-momentum collision energy root s(NN) = 130 GeV. The observed ...
Stellar reaction rate for (22)Mg + p -> (23)Al from the asymptotic normalization coefficient in the mirror nuclear system (22)Ne + n -> (23)Ne
(American Physical Society, 2010)
The production of (22)Na in ONe novae can be influenced by the (22)Mg(p,gamma)(23)Al reaction. To investigate this reaction rate at stellar energies, we have determined the asymptotic normalization coefficient (ANC) for ...
Astrophysical S factor for Be-9(p,gamma)B-10
(American Physical Society, 1999)
The Be-9(p, gamma) B-10 reaction plays an important role in primordial and stellar nucleosynthesis of light elements in the p shell, but the energy dependence of S(E) has not been well understood. We reanalyze the existing ...
