In the ejecta from ONe novae outbursts nuclei up to A~40 are observed. The 30P(p,γ)31S reaction is thought to be the bottleneck for the production of all elements heavier than sulphur. However, due to uncertainties in the properties of key proton-unbound resonances the reaction rate is not well determined. In this thesis work, excited states in 31S were populated via the 28Si(4He,n) light-ion fusion-evaporation reaction and the prompt electromagnetic radiation was then detected with the GAMMASPHERE detector array.

A spectrometer using two fully depleted silicon detectors (in a configuration) has been realized with the goal of directly measuring the production rate of the e+e− pairs emitted in E0 transition of the 12C 16O reaction. This is a key reaction in nuclear astrophysics, which takes place during the He burning stage of red giant stars and thus regulates the carbon/oxygen abundance in the Universe. In particular, we are interested to determine the e+e− pair cross section at energies below 2 MeV, where theoretical estimate is possible by using the R- matrix extrapolation. Experimental e+e− pa

In explosive astrophysical environments such as novae, X-ray bursters and supernovae, conditions of extreme temperature and density are achieved.

In this light, direct reaction studies using radioactive ion beams play a vital role in determining nuclear reaction rates. However, in the vast majority of cases, direct measurements are not possible and as such, indirect measurements are equally important for the understanding of the main reaction processes driving astrop

Abstract:
With the use of an incoherent binary nucleon-nucleon collision model of heavy ion collisions for simulating particle production, it is demonstrated that the nuclear modification factors, R_{AA} and R_{CP}, are less than unity for hard scattering in the absence of any nuclear modification effects. The nuclear modification factor R_{dAu} is also shown to approach or exceed unity only if p_T broadening is taken into account. With a simple phenomenological parameter, the mean nucleon energy loss fraction, this model yields particle distributions that are comparable to those of experiment. The nucl

Abstract:
Astrophysical models that address stellar energy generation and nucleosynthesis require a considerable amount of input from nuclear physics and are very sensitive to the detailed structure of nuclei, both stable and unstable. Radioactive nuclei play a dominant role in several stellar environments such as supernovae, X-ray bursts, novae etc. and nuclear data are important in the interpretation of these phenomena. When carbon, nitrogen and oxygen isotopes are present in substantial quantities in a star of sufficient mass, the fusion of four hydrogen nuclei to form a helium nucleus proceeds via

Abstract:
The Bethe-Weizsäcker cycle consists of a set of nuclear reactions that convert hydrogen into helium and release energy in the stars. It determines the luminosity of low-metal stars at their turn-off from the main-sequence in the Hertzsprung-Russel diagram, so its rate enters the calculation of the globular clusters’ age, an independent lower limit on the age of the universe. The cycle contributes less than 1% to our Sun’s luminosity, but it produces neutrinos that can in principle be measured on Earth in underground experiments and bring direct information of the physical conditions in the sol

Abstract:
In the current work the study of the 22Ne(a,g)26Mg and of the 6Li(p,g)7 Be reactions are presented. Both reactions were investigated at LUNA, located under 1400 m of Gran Sasso rock (Italy). The rock coverage guarantees an unprecedented reduction of the cosmic rays background. The 22Ne(a,g)26Mg reaction plays a fundamental role in the nucleosynthesis of s- nuclei in low-mass AGB stars and in massive stars. Indeed, the 22Ne(a,g)26Mg reaction is the competitor of the 22Ne(a,n)25 Mg reaction, an effective neutron source for element synthesis through s-process. The ratio between the rat
