L’esperimento LUNA- CdS MI giugno 2013 Laboratory Underground Nuclear Astrophysics Alessandra Guglielmetti Università degli Studi di Milano e INFN, Milano, ITALY L’esperimento LUNA: misure recenti Stato del Progetto Premiale LUNA MV Alessandra Guglielmetti & Davide Trezzi (assegnista INFN fino a gennaio 2013 e assegnista UNIMI da aprile 2013) + laureandi M. Campeggio, C. Bruno

17O(p,g)18F measurement Campeggio 17O+p is very important for hydrogen burning in different stellar environments: - Red giants - Massive stars - AGB - Novae production of light nuclei (17O/18O abundances....); observation of 18F g-ray signal (annihilation 511 keV). Classical novae T=0.1-0.4 GK => EGamow = 100 – 260 keV Resonant Contribution: 17O(p,γ)18F resonance at Ep = 183 keV and non resonant contribution

17O(p,γ)18F experimental setup Proton energy range : E=185- 400 keV average current I~300 μA NuPECC - Milan 9 2012 NuPECC - Milan 9 2012 Nuclear Astrophysics at LSC 5

17O(p,g)18F measurement 183 keV resonance: wg=1.67±0.12 meV (weighted average of prompt and activation) Several new transitions identified and branching ratios determined

17O(p,g)18F results A. Caciolli et al., Eur. Phys. J. A (2012) 48:144 D. Scott et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 109 (2012) 202501 (Editors' suggestion) A Di Leva et al., to be submitted to Phys. Rev C. Best fit of available data Improvement of a factor of 4 in the reaction rate uncertainty!

BBN reaction network Be Li He p D H n 1. n  p + e- + n p + n  D + g 3 4 Be 7 Li H D p n 2 1 8 9 6 11 12 10 5 13 1. n  p + e- + n p + n  D + g D + p  3He + g D + D  3He + n D + D  3H + p 3H + D  4He + n 3H + 4H  7Li + g 3He + n  3H + p 3He + D  4He + p 3He + 4He  7Be + g 7Li + p  4He + 4He 7Be + n  7Li + p 4He + D  6Li + g

The 6Li case BBN prediction 7Li 6Li BBN prediction Constant amount in stars of different metallicity (age) 2-3 orders of magnitude higher than predicted with the BBN network (NACRE) (Asplund 2006, now debated since convective motions on the stellar surface can give an asymmetry in the absorption line mimicking the presence of 6Li) The primordial abundance is determined by: 2H(a,g)6Li producing almost all the 6Li 6Li(p,a)3He destroying 6Li  well known At LUNA direct measurements at the energies of astrophysical interest BBN prediction 7Li 6Li BBN prediction

The beam-induced background - neutron background generated by d(a,a)d Rutherford scattering followed by d(d,n)3He reactions -> (n,n’γ) reactions on surrounding materials (Pb, Ge, Cu) -> much higher γ-ray background in the RoI for the d(α,γ)6Li DC transition (~1.6 MeV) d n 3He α

Experimental set-up M. Anders et al., EPJA (2013) 49:28 Reduced gas volume: pipe to minimize the path of scattered 2H and hence diminish the d(d,n)3He reaction yield HPGe detector in close geometry: larger detection efficiency and improved signal-to-noise ratio M. Anders et al., EPJA (2013) 49:28

2H(a,g)6Li analysis Trezzi Two measurement campaigns: a) 400 keV and 280 keV b) 360 keV and 240 keV at 400 keV the expected S/N ratio is about 1/12 Signal: Eg = Q + ECM - DErec± DEDoppler 400 (360) keV and 280 (240) keV ROIs not overlapping Background almost independent on beam energy A counting excess is clearly visible both at 400 and 360 keV! Possible systematics still under evaluation

17O(p,α)14N measurement C. Bruno Never measured AGB stars ( T=0.03-0.1 GK ) Classical Novae ( T=0.1-0.4 GK ) rare isotopes production Q= 1.2 MeV

17O(p,α)14N – experimental setup Beam entrance 8 silicon detectors Al+Mylar (2 μm) To stop scattered protons Test resonance 18O(p,a)15N E=151 keV solid Ta2O5 target (not visible). 17O enriched

17O(p,α)14N – 193 keV resonance Very preliminary: <100mC of collected charge I<10mA A signal is visible on all working detectors Roughly 20% below literature Deeper investigation needed #3 #4 #5 #6 #7
