摘要:

I型X射线爆发中的核合成可能涉及多达几千个核过程。由于缺乏足够的实验信息,这些过程中的大多数仅在理论上确定。准确的反应Q值对于反应速率的可靠理论估计是必不可少的。在这些环境中,那些具有小Q值(< 1 MeV)的反应特别令人感兴趣,因为它们可能代表了朝向更大质量核的连续丰度流的等待点。为了探索这些等待点的性质,我们进行了一系列全面的后处理计算,研究I型X射线爆发中核合成反应Q值不确定性的敏感性。我们讨论并列出了相对较少的临界质量,测量可以更好地约束我们的研究结果。特别是,我们强调的重要性,测量65砷的质量,以获得实验Q值的64锗(p,γ)65砷反应。

英文摘要:

Nucleosynthesis in Type I X-ray bursts may involve up to several thousand nuclear processes. The majority of these processes have only been determined theoretically due to the lack of sufficient experimental information. Accurate reaction Q-values are essential for reliable theoretical estimates of reaction-rates. Those reactions with small Q-values (< 1 MeV) are of particular interest in these environments as they may represent waiting points for a continuous abundance flow towards heavier-mass nuclei. To explore the nature of these waiting points, we have performed a comprehensive series of post-processing calculations which examine the sensitivity of nucleosynthesis in Type I X-ray bursts to uncertainties in reaction Q-values. We discuss and list the relatively few critical masses for which measurements could better constrain the results of our studies. In particular, we stress the importance of measuring the mass of 65As to obtain an experimental Q-value for the 64Ge(p,gamma)65As reaction.
