Half of the elements heavier than iron are produced by the r process under extreme conditions. To identify its site remains one of the major challenges in nuclear astrophysics. Advances in the description of neutrino-matter interactions and its implementation in core-collapse super- nova modelling have lead to the conclusion that supernova explosions only contribute to the production of...

The origin of heavy elements heavier than iron like Au and U are still unknown although sixty years have already passed since the benchmark paper B2FH on the origin of elements in the Universe was published in 1957. GW emitters of both binary neutron-star mergers (NSMs) and core-collapse supernovae (SNe) are viable candidates for...

The $^{23}$Al(p,$\gamma$)$^{24}$Si stellar reaction rate has a significant impact of the light-curve emitted in X-ray bursts. Theoretical calculation shows that the reaction rate is mainly determined by the properties of direct capture as well as low-lying 2$^{+}$ states and a possible 4$^{+}$ state in $^{24}$Si. Currently, there is little experimental information on the properties of these...

Electron screening enhances nuclear reaction cross sections at low beam energies. This happens in many astrophysical scenarios, e.g. stellar burning or supernova explosions. Unfortunately, the process is still poorly understood. All currently used calculations are based on the very simple assumption that the electrons distributed evenly on a shell decrease the repulsive potential inside the...

The key role played by nuclear masses in rapid neutron capture, or r-process, nucleosynthesis has long been recognized. Masses set the reaction flow path for an r-process in equilibrium and influence the neutron capture rates, beta decay rates, and fission properties that determine the final abundances. Here we describe modern efforts to quantify the uncertainties in r-process abundance...

The neutrino flux released during the collapse is so significant that the probability of a neutrino interacting with a nucleus is enhanced enough to have an influence on element nucleosynthesis [1].

Heaviest nuclei (A > 58) are synthesized by sequential neutron capture reactions. There are two main processes, depending on their time scale compared with the beta decay lifetime: these are the so called slow (s) and rapid (r) processes. Both produce about half of the stable isotopes beyond iron in the Universe [1].
Focusing on the s process, these take place in low mass (1 − 3M⊙) Asymptotic...

For nucleosynthesis calculations precise reaction rates should be known at energies close to the Gamow peak. Accurate measurements of nuclear reactions performed at these energies [1-5] shows an unexpected enhancement of the cross section at the lowest measurable energies that is attributed to the presence of atomic electrons in the target. In order to observe the bare nuclear cross section,...

The future availability of high-intensity laser facilities capable of delivering tens of Petawatts of power (e.g. ELI-NP) into small volumes of matter at high repetition rates will give the unique opportunity to investigate nuclear reactions and fundamental interactions under the extreme plasma conditions realized by laser-matter interactions.
Nuclear reactions of astrophysical interest are...

Isomers are metastable states of atomic nuclei. Their half-lifes are about 100 to 1000 times longer than those of the excited nuclear states with prompt g-emissions. If the conditions in an application change on the time scale of isomers' half lifes, their abundances have to be tracked explicitly.
The high temperatures under stellar conditions enable the population of higher-lying states...

These van der Waals bonded clusters can be easily produced in the expansion of a gas jet into vacuum.

Experimental nuclear astrophysics aims at measuring astrophysically relevant burning reaction cross sections at the corresponding Gamow energy.

In such cases, both Coulomb...

The thermonuclear runaway in classical novae proceeds through radiative proton capture re- actions (p,γ) involving proton rich sd-shell nuclei close to the dripline. Many of the capture reactions at typical peak nova temperatures of 0.2-0.4 GK are dominated by resonant capture. Therefore, the key parameters in understanding the astrophysical reaction rates are the energies, decay widths and...
