Recent applications of the the Trojan Horse method to nuclear astrophysics Available to Purchase

Light elements lithium, beryllium and boron (LiBeB) have been used in the last years as possible probes for stellar structure. They are mainly destroyed by (p,a) reactions and cross section measurements for such channels are then needed. The Trojan Horse Method (THM) allows one to extract the astrophysical S(E)-factor without the experience of tunneling through the Coulomb barrier. In this work a résumé of the recent new results about the $11B(p,α0)8Be$ and $7Li(p,α)4He$ reactions are shown.
