Effect of beam energy straggling on resonant yield in thin gas targets: The cases 22Ne(p, γ)23Na and 14N(p, γ)15O

D. Bemmerer F. Cavanna R. Depalo

When deriving resonance strengths using the thick-target yield approximation, for very narrow resonances it may be necessary to take beam energy straggling into account. This applies to gas targets of a few keV width, especially if there is some additional structure in target stoichiometry or detection efficiency. The correction for this effect...

A high-efficiency gas target setup for underground experiments, and redetermination of the branching ratio of the 189.5 keV22Ne(p,gamma)23Na resonance

F. Ferraro M. P. Takacs D. Piatti

The experimental study of nuclear reactions of astrophysical interest is greatly facilitated by a low-background, high-luminosity setup. The Laboratory for Underground Nuclear Astrophysics (LUNA) 400 kV accelerator offers ultra-low cosmic-ray induced background due to its location deep underground in the Gran Sasso National Laboratory...
