Journal Article
Bucher, B., Tang, X. D., Fang, X., Heger, A., Alamaraz-Calderon, S., Alongi, A., …Woosley, S. E. (2015). The first direct measurement of ¹²C (¹²C,n) ²³Mg at stellar energies. Physical review letters, 114(25), 251102. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.114.251102

Neutrons produced by the carbon fusion reaction ¹²C(¹²C,n)²³Mg play an important role in stellar nucleosynthesis. However, past studies have shown large discrepancies between experimental data and theory, leading to an uncertain cross section extrapo...
