Abstract

Excitation functions of 8Li(α, n), (d, t) and 12B(α, n) reactions were directly measured in the energy region of astrophysical interest using low-energy radioactive nuclear beams of 8Li and 12B. Each measured excitation function is strongly affected by one or more resonances through a compound nucleus. The measured excitation functions are presented. Dominant r-process paths through 8Li at various temperatures are discussed and our future experimental plan is also presented.
