Abstract:Radioactive beams, either at low or high energy, can be very useful for understanding violent events which are encountered in nuclear astrophysics.The main aim of the field of nuclear astrophysics is to understand the produc tion of energy and the synthesis of ele ments in stars and during stellar events. Both processes occur through nuclear reactions [1]. In "quiet" stars like our sun, and in general during non-violent stellar events, the rate of these nuclear reactions is much smaller than the average decay … Show more
