Abstract

Measurements have been made of the Zr-96(p,gamma)Nb-97, Sn-112(p,gamma)Sb-113, and Sn-119(p,gamma) Sb-120 cross section excitation functions, Incident proton energies ranged from 2.8 MeV to 8.5 MeV. These reactions are relevant to several processes of stellar nucleosynthesis. The resulting astrophysical S-factors are compared to those from theoretical statistical model calculations using the SMOKER, and the more recent NON-SMOKER, codes to judge their applicability to these reactions.
