We present a many-channel microscopic model that extends the three-cluster model previously formulated in \cite{2009NPA...V37}. This extended model incorporates multiple three-cluster configurations, which are subsequently reduced to a…
We study the nonresonant part of the $^7$Be($p,\gamma$)$^8$B reaction using a three-cluster resonating group model that is variationally converged and virtually complete in the $^4$He+$^3$He+$p$ model space. The importance of using adequate…
We determine cross sections and astrophysical S-factors of the reactions generated in collisions between $^{6}$Li and $^{3}$H, and $^{6}$Li and $^{3}$He. A microscopic three-cluster model is employed to study the dynamics of reactions…
We have studied the 4He(3He,gamma)7Be, 3He(3He,2p)4He, and 7Be(p,gamma)8B reactions of the solar p-p chain, using microscopic cluster models. Among other results, we showed that the 6Li+p channel has a nontrivial effect on the 7Be-producing…

The `lithium problem' in Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) has recently focused on the reactions involving $^7$Be. The $^6$Li($p, \gamma$)$^7$Be reaction can provide us not only the information for destroying $^6$Li but also the information…
The ${^3{\rm He}}(\alpha,\gamma){^7{\rm Be}}$ and ${^3{\rm H}}(\alpha,\gamma){^7{\rm Li}}$ astrophysical $S$ factors are calculated within the no-core shell model with continuum using a renormalized chiral nucleon-nucleon interaction. The…

The He3(He4,gamma)Be7 and H3(He4,gamma)Li7 reactions are studied in an extended two-cluster model which contains alpha+h/t and Li6+p/n clusterizations. We show that the inclusion of the Li6+p/n channels can significantly change the…

The astrophysical S-factor for the process p7Be --> 8Bgamma of radiative capture by the 8B ground state is described up to 5 MeV, within the modified potential cluster model. The signatures of the S-factor resonances at 0.632, 2.18 and 3.36…
We propose a physically transparent analytic model of astrophysical S-factors as a function of a center-of-mass energy E of colliding nuclei (below and above the Coulomb barrier) for non-resonant fusion reactions. For any given reaction,…

The $^{12}$C+$^{12}$C fusion reaction plays a crucial role in stellar evolution and explosions. Its open reaction channels mainly include $\alpha$, $p$, $n$, and ${}^{8}$Be. Despite more than a half century of efforts, large discrepancies…
