“…Broadly, these techniques fall into the two categories of direct and indirect measurements. Direct measurements of explosive hydrogen and helium burning reactions at or near the astrophysical energies where they occur have been performed with rare isotope beams using recoil separators (DRAGON) [106,107,404,405], active targets (MUSIC, AT-TPC, ANASEN, and others) [189,190,192,406], or gas targets (JENSA) [406][407][408][409].…”

Nuclear astrophysics is a field at the intersection of nuclear physics and astrophysics, which seeks to understand the nuclear engines of astronomical objects and the origin of the chemical elements. This white paper summarizes progress and status of the field, the new open questions that have emerged, and the tremendous scientific opportunities that have opened up with major advances in capabilities across an ever growing number of disciplines and subfields that need to be integrated. We take a holistic view of the field discussing the unique challenges and opportunities in nuclear astrophysics in regards to science, diversity, education, and the interdisciplinarity and breadth of the field. Clearly nuclear astrophysics is a dynamic field with a bright future that is entering a new era of discovery opportunities.

In many cases direct measurements have not been feasible due to limited radioactive ion beam intensities and the extremely small cross sections involved.…”
