Indirect determination of the astrophysical S17 factor via high-energy Coulomb dissociation of 8B — •F. Schümann — Institut für Physik mit Ionenstrahlen, Ruhr-Universität Bochum, Germany

The low-energy 7Be(p,g)8B cross section is directly linked to the flux of high-energy solar neutrinos and their flavor oscillations. Recently, a new proton-capture measurement on 7Be found a low-energy astrophysical S17 factor which differed markedly from previous results [1]. We have measured at GSI the same quantity by a completely different method, Coulomb dissociation of a 254 A MeV radioactive 8B beam, and studied the angular correlations of the breakup particles, p and 7Be. We could show that these angular correlations can be explained to good accuracy by pure E1 multipolarity [2]. From a recent reanalysis of our data we obtained results that are in good agreement with those of Ref.[1]. These results also compare favorably with recent theoretical predictions for S17.
