Neutron Capture in Low‐Mass Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars: Cross Sections and Abundance Signatures

The recently improved information on the stellar (n,gamma) cross sections of neutron-magic nuclei at N = 82, and in particular of 142Nd, turned out to represent a sensitive test for models of s-process nucleosynthesis. While these data were found to be incompatible with the classical approach based ... View More
