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 {\sc resolut} radioactive beam facility of Florida State University, we have studied the $\mathrm{^{25}Al(d,n)^{26}Si}$ reaction in inverse kinematics to establish the spectrum of the lowest $l=0$ and $l=1$ resonances. The spectrum is consistent with a previous experiment using the same reaction at {\sc resolut} [1] and results obtained from recent stable beam experiments [2]. \\[4pt] [1] P.N. Peplowski et al.
