NACRE II: an update of the NACRE compilation of charged-particle-induced thermonuclear reaction rates for nuclei with mass number A < 16

TL;DR: The NACRE-II compilation as mentioned in this paper is the most recent compilation of the data and is referred to as NACre II, which reports thermonuclear reaction rates for 34 charged-particle induced, two-body exoergic reactions on nuclides with mass number A 16, of which fifteen are particle transfer reactions and the rest radiative capture reactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Standard Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis up to CNO with an improved extended nuclear network

TL;DR: In this article, the authors improved the standard BBN calculations taking into account new nuclear physics analyses and enlarge the nuclear network up to sodium, and performed a sensitivity study to identify the important reactions for CNO, 9Be, and boron nucleosynthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Databases and tools for nuclear astrophysics applications - BRUSsels Nuclear LIBrary (BRUSLIB), Nuclear Astrophysics Compilation of REactions II (NACRE II) and Nuclear NETwork GENerator (NETGEN)

TL;DR: The BRUSLIB + NACRE package as mentioned in this paper contains the latest predictions of a wide variety of nuclear data based on the most recent version of the Brussels-Montreal Skyrme-Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Databases and tools for nuclear astrophysics applications BRUSsels Nuclear LIBrary (BRUSLIB), Nuclear Astrophysics Compilation of REactions II (NACRE II) and Nuclear NETwork GENerator (NETGEN)

TL;DR: The BRUSLIB+NACRE package of nuclear data for astrophysics and of the web-based nuclear network generator NETGEN is presented in this paper, where the nuclear masses, radii, spin/parities, deformations, single-particle schemes, matter densities, nuclear level density, E1 strength functions, fission properties, and partition functions are provided for all nuclei lying between the proton and neutron drip lines over the 8 <=Z<=110 range.
Journal ArticleDOI

Systematic study of neutron capture including the compound, pre-equilibrium, and direct mechanisms

TL;DR: In this paper, the three major reaction mechanisms, namely, compound-nucleus capture (CNC), pre-equilibrium capture (PEC), and direct capture (DIC), are considered on the basis of the Hauser-Feshbach model, the exciton model, and potential model, respectively.
