The extreme temperatures and densities of many astrophysical environments tend to
destabilize nuclear isomers by inducing transitions to higher-energy states which may then …

The radioisotope 26 Al is a key observable for nucleosynthesis in the Galaxy and the
environment of the early Solar System. To properly interpret the large variety of astronomical …

The cosmic production of the short-lived radioactive nuclide 26Al is crucial for our
understanding of the evolution of stars and galaxies. However, simulations of the stellar sites …

The next years will see the completion of several new facilities at Istituto Nazionale di Fisica
Nucleare–Laboratori Nazionali del Sud (LNS) opening up new possibilities in the fields of …

Abstract We report NanoSIMS Si and Mg–Al isotopic data (and C, N, and Ti isotopic data,
when available) for 85 submicron-to micron-sized presolar SiC grains from the CM2 …

This paper provides a template of expected uncertainties and correlations for measurements
of neutron-induced capture and charged-particle production cross sections. Measurements …

Context. The 26 Al short-lived radioactive nuclide is the source of the observed galactic
diffuse γ-ray emission at 1.8 MeV. While different sources of 26 Al have been explored, such …

In the last 20 years, the neutron time-of-flight facility n_TOF at CERN has been providing
relevant data for the astrophysical slow neutron capture process (s process). At n_TOF …

The Back-n white neutron source at the China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) provides
neutrons in the continuous energy region from 0.5 eV to 200 MeV. A spectrometer named …

Over the last decade, efforts were made to improve the performance of the experimental set-
ups at the Geel Electron Linear Accelerator (GELINA) neutron time-of-flight facility of the …
