9 The world's first tandem accelerator installed at Chalk River in Molecular resonances in the 12 C+ 12 C fusion reaction measured by Almqvist et al., in 1960
10 proton and alpha spectroscopy (Patterson 69, Mazarakis 73, Becker 78) <5 pμa 12 C Set up of Becker s experiment
11 Charged particle spectroscopy Only count the proton and alpha peaks which can be identified 8 Be? p, α? Potentially underestimate total fusion cross section Eg. missing 8 Be, neutron any more particle?
12 (Kettner 77, Erb 80, Aguilera Nuclear 06, Spillane Science Laboratory 07) Pictures are adapted from Spillane s talk
13 Kettner et al., Institute for Structure and Nuclear Astrophysics Good selectivity Low efficiency (3.6% for 440 kev and 1.9% for 1634 kev) Assume isotropic ang. distribution Need decay branching information to correct for the decay channels which do not decay via the first excited state!! (eg. ground state transition) Spillane et al., Ph.D. Thesis (2007)
14 The extrapolation to low energy is uncertain and more experimental and theoretical studies are urgently needed. Fowler, Nobel Lecture (1983) C. A. Barnes, P.193, Essays in Nuclear Astrophysics (1982)
15 Even more problematic? Hindrance?? R. Cooper et al., APJ (2009) 702, 660 Gasques et al. PRC 72 (2005) Jiang et al. PRC 75 (2007) Challenge for Laboratory nuclear-astrophysics in Underground and Surface 2009: CLAUS2009

21 Naples Experiment Detector coincidence to veto cosmic rays Ω=0.19 sr
22 Preliminary results from Caserta S*(E)=S(E)*exp(0.46*E) Uncertainties below 2.5 MeV range from % on each curve Gamma ray data correspond to the 440 kev line of 23 Na and charged particle data to P0 and P1 groups (normalization necessary) Modifications are necessary to achieve energies below 2 MeV (higher beam currents, larger efficiency, etc.) Jim Zickefoose, U. Conn Thesis (2010)
23 The past 12 C( 12 C,n) 23 Mg experiment -Potential neutron source for the weak s-process -Sharp peak in β n? -Model calculation requires renormalization!
24 Study by Pignatari et al Measure 12 C( 12 C,n) 23 Mg at lower energies with better uncertainties!
25 Preliminary Results B. Bucher, Session CG 006, Thursday cüxä Å ÇtÜç cüxä Å ÇtÜç -Cover the entire energy range measured before. -Working on measurement towards lower energies. -Confirm peak in β n! -Statistical model calculation not reliable! -Use mirror symmetry instead.
26 Future experiments Find treasure at the end of rainbow? Earlier preliminary result from Caserta, May 2009 Indirect search of unknown resonances ( 24 Mg(a,a ) at RCNP) Extend measurement towards lower energies 1) Particle-gamma experiment 2) Solenoid spectrometer
27 Extension of 12 C + 12 C towards lower energies: Particle γ coincidences (e.g. p γ or α γ) Particle recoil coincidences (e.g. p 23 Na) γ recoil coincidences (e.g. γ 23 Na) E cm =4MeV 100 pna beam

31 Long Range Plan: DUSEL
32 Summary Institute for Structure and Nuclear Astrophysics The extrapolation to low energy is VERY uncertain and more experimental and theoretical studies are urgently needed. Using Isotope fusion, the upper limit is defined. The lower limit may be further reduced by the hindrance effect. The proposed new developments, particle-gamma array and solenoid spectrometer coupling with the forthcoming new accelerator at ND, will provide us the best opportunity than ever to address the key problems in nuclear astrophysics.
