Abstract | The Ne-18(alpha,p)Na-21 reaction is thought to be one of the key breakout reactions from the hot CNO cycles to the rp process in type I x-ray bursts. In this work, the resonant properties of the compound nucleus Mg-22 have been investigated by measuring the resonant elastic scattering of Na-21 + p. An 89-MeV Na-21 radioactive beam delivered from the CNS Radioactive Ion Beam Separator bombarded an 8.8 mg/cm(2) thick polyethylene (CH2)(n) target. The Na-21 beam intensity was about 2 x 10(5) pps, with a purity of about 70% on target. The recoiled protons were measured at the center-of-mass scattering angles of theta(c.m) approximate to 175.2 degrees, 152.2 degrees, and 150.5 degrees. by three sets of Delta E-E telescopes, respectively. The excitation function was obtained with the thick-target method over energies E-x (Mg-22) = 5.5-9.2 MeV. In total, 23 states above the proton-threshold in Mg-22 were observed, and their resonant parameters were determined via an R-matrix analysis of the excitation functions. We have made several new J(pi) assignments and confirmed some tentative assignments made in previous work. The thermonuclear Ne-18(alpha, p)Na-21 rate has been recalculated based on our recommended spin-parity assignments. The astrophysical impact of our new rate has been investigated through one-zone postprocessing x-ray burst calculations. We find that the Ne-18(alpha, p)Na-21 rate significantly affects the peak nuclear energy generation rate, reaction fluxes, and onset temperature of this breakout reaction in these astrophysical phenomena. |
