At temperatures below 0.1 GK the 19 F(p, γ) 20 Ne reaction is the only breakout path out of the CNO cycle. Experimental studies of this reaction are challenging from a technical perspective due to copious γ-ray background from the far stronger 19 F(p, α) 16 O reaction channel. Here we present the first inverse kinematics study of the 19 F(p, γ) 20 Ne reaction, in which we measure the strength of the 323-keV resonance. We find a strength value of ωγ = 3.3 +1.1 −0.9 meV, which is a factor of two larger than the most recent previous study. The discrepancy is likely the result of a direct to ground state transition which previous studies were not sensitive to. We also observe the transition to the first 2 − state, which has not been observed for this resonance in previous studies. A new thermonuclear reaction rate is calculated and compared with the literature.
