Experimental study of 22Ne(๐œถ,๐’)25Mg with SHADES featuring Daniela Mercogliano (University of Naples Federico II) (Opens in a new window)

Seminars

Hosted by: Khang Pham (TAMU)

Abstract: The reaction 22Ne(๐›ผ,๐‘›)25Mg is one of the main neutron source in stars, providing the neutron flux for the weak component of the s-process in massive stars and partially contributing to the main component in AGB stars. For these reasons, its reaction rate is crucial in nuclear astrophysics.


However, the limited availability of experimental data in the energy range of astrophysical interest still leads to significant uncertainties in the reaction rate and in nucleosynthesis predictions.

Astrophysics with Radioactive Isotopes 2026 (Opens in a new window)

Traverse City, MI, USA

Workshops & Conferences

The aim of the conference is to bring together researchers interested in the significant role radioactive nuclei play in the cosmos and particularly with respect to questions in astrophysics.  The scientific program will cover topics related to the role of radioactivity within galactic chemical evolution, cosmochemistry, the origin of elements, and multi-messenger astronomy.
