Development and Implementation of a New Technique to Study (p,α) Reactions Relevant to Nucleosynthesis in Binary Systems

The accurate determination of the strengths and energies of resonances in (p,alpha) reactions is important for understanding the influence of reaction cycles to element synthesis in many astrophysical environments. Thus far, (p,alpha) studies in inverse kinematics have employed solid polypropylene t...
