Nuclear reactions of proton by light nuclei at low energies play a key role in the study ofnucleosynthesis which is of interest in nuclear astrophysics. The most fundamental process whichis very necessary is the elastic scattering. In this work, we construct a microscopic proton-nucleuspotential in order to describe the differential cross-sections over scattering angles of the protonelastic scattering by 12C and 13C in the range of available energies 14 - 22 MeV. The microscopicoptical potential is based on the folding model using the effective nucleon-nucleon interactionCDM3Yn. The results show the promising use of the CDM3Yn interactions at low and very lowenergies, which were originally used for nuclear reactions at intermediate energies. This could bethe premise for the study of nuclear reactions using CDM3Yn interaction in astrophysics at lowenergies.

In the present study, two different density distributions of oxygen isotopes ([Formula: see text]O) that consist of the harmonic oscillator single-particle wave functions (SDHO) and the relativistic mean-field (RMF) approaches are investigated for the availability of elastic scattering cross-sections. For this purpose, the elastic scattering angular distributions of nuclear reactions with 13 target nuclei, four target nuclei and nine target nuclei are calculated for [Formula: see text]O, [Formula: see text]O and [Formula: see text]O, respectively. For these calculations, the double folding model based on the optical model is used. The optical potential parameters, volume integrals and cross-sections for all the nuclear reactions are given in this study. The comparison of theoretical results and experimental data shows very good agreement. The imaginary potential depth expressions, which will be new and more practical terms to explain the nuclear interactions of [Formula: see text]O, [Formula: see text]O and [Formula: see text]O with different nuclei, for each oxygen isotope are proposed.

Electron screening in an important effect that cannot be neglected in nuclear astrophysics, since it influences nuclear reaction cross sections at low energies. We are trying to understand why most measurements in inverse kinematics on solid targets give electron screening potentials more than an order of magnitude above predictions. Below we report our latest results on electron screening in nuclear reactions 1H(14N,γ)15O and 2H(19F,ρ)2°F in both inverse and normal kinematics. The analysis is in progress.

We present a closed-form description that enables us to obtain the analytical expressions for the elastic scattering and dissociation differential cross-sections of deuterons and 3H-nuclei by heavy target nuclei. The resulting expressions are used to analyze the data for the 110 MeV deuterons elastically scattered on 208Pb-nuclei. The dissociation cross-sections of deuterons and 3H-nuclei are the oscillating functions of the scattering angle of the released two- and three-nucleon-particle system center-of-mass.

The work proposes a straightforward method for determining the nuclear reaction cross sections at extremely low energies (E ≃ 1–100 keV) on the basis of the measurements of the relative yield of fast particles which are products of the nuclear reactions in a target under laser compression. On the other hand, the proposed method makes it possible to find the averaged form of the ion velocity distribution function if the low-energy behaviour of the respective cross sections is known.

Nuclear reaction rates play a crucial role in nuclear astrophysics. In the last decades there has been an enormous effort to measure reaction cross sections and extensive experimental databases have been compiled as a result. In spite of these efforts, most nuclear reaction network calculations still have to rely on theoretical predic- tions of experimentally unknown rates. In particular, in astrophysics applications such as the s-, r- and p-process nucleosynthesis involving a large number of nuclei and nuclear reactions (thousands). Moreover, most of the ingredients of the cal- culations of reaction rates have to be extrapolated to energy and/or mass regions that cannot be explored experimentally. For this reason it is important to develop global microscopic or semi-microscopic models of nuclear properties that give an accurate description of existing data and are reliable for predictions far away from the stability line. The need for more microscopic input parameters has led to new devel- opments within the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov method, some of which are presented in this paper.
