Prospects for Nuclear Astrophysics Studies with Stable Beams

ORAL · Invited

Abstract

Experimental nuclear astrophysics studies have been performed with stable beams for almost a century. Improved sensitivity, background mitigation techniques, inverse kinematics, indirect studies and more have allowed for experiments to deliver reaction rate estimates with reduced uncertainties. These rates are used to constrain stellar models, especially for quiescent burning scenarios, predicting observables, now including neutrino flux. This talk will present recent studies of stable beam induced nuclear reactions of astrophysics interest. The report on these exciting measurements will lay the ground to a discussion of examples of upcoming investigations with stable beams.
