Exotic Nuclei in Stars
Saeed Mohammadi

Abstract:
The Radioactive Ion Beam projects aim at the production and acceleration of radioactive nuclei in the low and medium energy range (<4.0 MeV per nucleon), which is of interest for cross section measurements of important reactions in nuclear astrophysics. Specific examples of nuclear reactions of astrophysical interest involving radioactive nuclei are the 15O (α, γ) 19Ne and 19Ne (p, γ) 20Na reactions in which exotic nucleus 19Ne plays a significant role in the hot pp-chain and hot CNO-cycle. We measured cross-sections for some medium mass nuclei Cr, Mn, Fe and Co that had been reported before that there are some anomalies for their productions in stars if we consider just stable nuclei. In this study, we will show how Radioactive Ion Beam factory will reproduce these synthesis reaction paths in the laboratory and give a comparison of fusion-evaporation production cross-sections for stable and unstable beams. It indicates a clear enhancement of using radioactive beams to access nuclei far from stability.
