Measurement of the $^{25}$Al(d,n)$^{26}$Si(p) reaction at RESOLUT: Spectroscopy of $l=0$ and $l=1$ resonances

ORAL

Abstract

Studies of rp-process nucleosynthesis in stellar explosions show that establishing the lowest $l=0$ and $l=1$ resonances is the most important step to determine reaction rates in the astrophysical $rp$--process path. In an experiment performed at the RESOLUT radioactive beam facility of Florida State University, we have studied the $^{25}$Al(d,n)$^{26}$Si reaction in inverse kinematics to establish the spectrum of the lowest $l=0$ and $l=1$ resonances. Recent results include neutron coincidences from the newly developed neutron detector array RESONEUT.
