40Ca(α,γ)44Ti and the production of 44Ti in supernovae
Abstract
The nuclide 44Ti is predicted to be produced in significant quantities in core-collapse supernovae, and indeed it has been observed in the supernova remnant Cassiopeia-A by space-based γ-ray telescopes. The main production of 44Ti takes place in the α-rich freeze-out phase deep inside the supernova. The key reactions governing the 44Ti abundance have been identified in an earlier sensitivity study. Using the recoil mass spectrometer DRAGON at …
