The r-process nucleosynthesis and related nuclear challenges S. Goriely Institut d’Astronomie et d’Astrophysique, Université Libre de Bruxelles, Belgium Contact email: sgoriely@astro.ulb.ac.be The rapid neutron-capture process, or r-process, is known to be of fundamental importance for explaining the origin of approximately half of the A > 60 stable nuclei observed in nature. In...

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...
