30S RI beam production and X-ray bursts
Abstract
The present work reports the results of 30S radioactive beam development for a future experiment directly measuring data to extrapolate the 30S(α,p) stellar reaction rate in Type I X-ray bursts, a phenomena where nuclear explosions occur repeatedly on the surface of accreting neutron stars. We produce the radioactive ion 30S via the 3He(28Si,30S)n reaction, by bombarding a cryogeni-cally cooled target of 3He at 400 Torr and 80 K with 28Si beams …
