Low-energy Cross Section Measurements of ¹²C(p,γ) Deep Underground at LUNA
Low-energy Cross Section Measurements of ¹²C(p,γ) Deep Underground at LUNA
Abstract
The ¹²C(p,γ)¹³N reaction cross section is currently under investigation in the low-background environment of the Laboratory for Underground Nuclear Astrophysics (LUNA). It is being studied using different types of solid targets, and employing two complementary detection techniques: HPGe spectroscopy and activation counting. To reduce systematic uncertainties, targets have been accurately characterized and their degradation under the intense beam of the LUNA-400 accelerator monitored. We present the experimental techniques and the corresponding analyses used to extract the reaction cross section.
