Abstract The Trojan Horse Method (THM) lays its foundations on the cluster structure of light nuclei which are usually used as “Trojan horses”. Many of them were successfully employed …
The cross sections of the 2 H (d, p) 3 H and 2 H (d, n) 3 He reactions have been measured via the Trojan Horse method applied to the quasi-free 2 H (3 He, p 3 H) 1 H and 2 H (3 He, n …
The study of energy production and nucleosynthesis in stars requires an increasingly precise knowledge of the nuclear reaction rates at the energies of interest. To overcome the …

Measurement of nuclear cross sections at astrophysical energies involving unstable species is one of the most challenging tasks in experimental nuclear physics. The use of indirect …
ABSTRACT The 18 O (p, α) 15 N reaction is of primary importance to pin down the uncertainties, due to nuclear physics input, affecting present-day models of asymptotic giant …
The lithium problem influencing primordial and stellar nucleosynthesis is one of the most interesting unsolved issues in astrophysics. 6 Li is the most fragile of lithium's stable …
ABSTRACT The 13 C (α, n) 16 O reaction is the neutron source for the main component of the s-process, responsible for the production of most of the nuclei in the mass range 90≲ A≲ …

The study of the O 17 (n, α) C 14 reaction has been performed by means of the Trojan horse method (THM) applied to the quasifree H 2 (O 17, α C 14) H 1 reaction induced at a beam …
The Trojan horse nucleus invariance for the binary reaction cross section extracted from the Trojan horse reaction was tested using the quasifree He 3 (Li 6, α α) H and He 3 (Li 7, α α) H …
