First results of total and partial cross-section measurements of the ¹⁰⁷Ag(p,γ)¹⁰⁸Cd reaction. — •Felix Heim, Julia Becker, Jan Mayer, Philipp Scholz, Mark Spieker, and Andreas Zilges — Institute for Nuclear Physics, University of Cologne

The γ process is assumed to play an important role in the nucleosynthesis of the majority of the p nuclei. Since the network of the γ process includes so many different reactions and - mainly unstable - nuclei, cross-section values are predominantly calculated in the scope of the Hauser-Feshbach statistical model. The values heavily depend on the nuclear physics input-parameters. The results of total and partial cross-section measurements are used to improve the accuracy of the theoretical calculations. In order to extend the experimental database the ¹⁰⁷Ag(p,γ)¹⁰⁸Cd reaction was studied via the in-beam method at the high-efficiency HPGe γ-ray spectrometer HORUS at the University of Cologne. Proton beams with energies between 3.5 and 5.0 MeV were provided by the 10 MV FN-Tandem accelerator. In this talk, first results on total and partial cross sections will be presented.
