This paper summarizes our present understanding of the nucleosynthesis and energy
generation in the carbon-nitrogen-oxygen (CNO) cycles and the influence and …

New experimental methods and techniques, combined with the development of new
theoretical tools, have opened new avenues to explore nuclear reactions of significance for …

We present results from the JINA REACLIB project, an ongoing effort to maintain a current
and accurate library of thermonuclear reaction rates for astrophysical applications. Ongoing …

Numerical values of charged-particle thermonuclear reaction rates for nuclei in the A= 14 to
40 region are tabulated. The results are obtained using a method, based on Monte Carlo …

The nuclear physics input used to compute the Monte Carlo reaction rates and probability
density functions that are tabulated in the second paper of this series (Paper II) is presented …

We solve for the evolution of the vertical extent of the convective region of a neutron star
atmosphere during a type I X-ray burst. The convective region is well mixed with ashes of …

Type I X-ray bursts are violent stellar events that take place in the H/He-rich envelopes of
accreting neutron stars. We have investigated the role played by uncertainties in nuclear …

▪ Abstract This review summarizes current problems and questions in experimental nuclear
astrophysics. It focuses on the present need for experimental data, emphasizing novel …

Radioactive ion beams of 17 F were used to study several resonance states in 18 Ne. Clear
evidence for simultaneous two-proton emission from the 6.15 MeV state (J π= 1−) in 18 Ne …

Abstract The 17 F (p, γ) 18 Ne reaction is important in stellar explosions, but its rate has
been uncertain because of an expected 3+ state in 18 Ne that has never been conclusively …
