Published data on the emission of charged particles following nuclear muon capture are extremely limited. In addition to its interest as a probe of the nuclear response, these data are important for the design of some current searches for…
Background: The breakout from the hot Carbon-Nitrogen-Oxigen (CNO) cycles can trigger the rp-process in type I x-ray bursts. In this environment, a competition between $^{15}\text{O}(\alpha,\gamma){^{19}\text{Ne}}$ and the two-proton…
The cross section of neutron-deuteron radiative capture $n d\to {^3H}\gamma$ is calculated at energies relevant to Big-Bang nucleosynthesis ($ 20 \leq E \leq 200 $ Kev) with pionless Effective Field Theory. At these energies, magnetic…
