Study of reaction 17O(p,alpha)14N via the Trojan Horse Method for application to 17O nucleosynthesis
Abstract
The 17O(p,alpha )14N is one of the most important reaction to be studied in order to get more information about the fate of 17O in different astrophysical scenarios. We report on the indirect measurement of 17O(p,alpha )14N reaction at energies below 300 keV by using the Trojan Horse Method. The experimental approach and the preliminary data of such investigation will be discussed.
