The 14N(p,γ)15O reaction at energies of astrophysical interest — •Daniel Bemmerer — Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare, Sezione di Padova, Italy, and Institut für Atomare Physik und Fachdidaktik, Technische Universität Berlin, Germany

The 14N(p,γ)15O reaction is the bottleneck of the hydrogen-burning CNO cycle. At the LUNA 400 kV accelerator deep underground in the Gran Sasso laboratory, its cross section has been measured in the ECM = 130 – 370 keV energy range using a TiN solid target and germanium detectors [1]. The resulting astrophysical S-factor extrapolated to zero energy is only half the previously accepted value, with interesting consequences for the age determination of globular clusters [2].

The present talk reports on the subsequent measurement [3] of the total cross section of this reaction in the ECM = 70 – 230 keV energy range using a windowless gas target and a 4π BGO detector at the LUNA accelerator. The results are consistent with [1] and extend the data to energies that lie within the Gamow peak for some stars.
