The improved precision regarding abundance determinations of Big Bang nuclides as well as an increased sensitivity for measuring solar neutrinos call for more precise nuclear data to improve the models. Therefore the ³He(α,γ)⁷Be reaction is being studied at the 3MV Tandetron accelerator at Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf, with a focus on the measurement of the γ-ray angular distribution at E ≈ 1 MeV.
This reaction affects the nucleosynthesis of ⁷Li as well as the predicted solar ⁷Be and ⁸B neutrino fluxes. A measurement of the angular distribution of the prompt γ-rays may enable a better comparison between precise experimental data sets at E = 0.7 - 1.3 MeV and a unique data set from the LUNA collaboration at E = 0.09 MeV - 0.13 MeV.
The activated ⁷Be samples are counted at the new Felsenkeller underground facility in Dresden, where a HPGe detector with a relative detection efficiency of 150% was recently installed. The results of the first campaign will be summarized. — Supported by DFG (ZU 123/21-1 and BE 4100/4-1) and the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung.
