Heavy ion fusion reactions play important roles in a wide variety of stellar burning scenarios. $^{12}$C+$^{12}$C, $^{12}$C+$^{16}$O and $^{16}$O+$^{16}$O are the principle reactions during the advance burning stages of massive star. $^{12}$C+$^{12}$C also triggers the happening of superburst and Type Ia supernovae. The heavy ion fusion reactions of the neutron-rich isotopes
such as $^{24}$O...
Crucial information on nova nucleosynthesis can be potentially inferred from γ-ray signals powered by 18F decay [1]. Therefore, the reaction network producing and destroying this radioactive isotope has been extensively studied in the last years. Among those reactions, the 18F(p,α)15O cross-section has been measured by means of several experiments, using direct and indirect methods. The...
Important roles of Gamow-Teller transitions have been studied for electron-capture and $\beta$-decay processes at stellar environments [1, 2] as well as $\nu$-nucleus reactions [3]. Importance of first-forbidden transitions in $\beta$-decay rates of N=126 isotones have been shown, and the short half-lives obtained were used to study r-process nucleosynthesis in core-collapse supernova...
Neutron capture reactions on radioactive nuclei especially near the drip nuclei of importance to the r-process, are not available. A possible way to obtain these cross sections is through indirect hybrid reactions. One such method is the Surrogate Method. The theory employed for this is the Inclusive Nonelastic Breakup (INEB) Reaction theory. In this talk we report on a recent work that...
