The direct measurements of nuclear reaction cross sections at astrophysical energies are usually difficult to be performed in terrestrial laboratories, mainly because of the Coulomb barrier. An alternative way of studying these processes is via the indirect methods among which the Trojan Horse (THM) represents a powerful tool for studying charged-particles induced reactions at astrophysically energies without the need of extrapolation procedures. The recent THM studies about the lithium and boron destroying reactions will be here shown and discussed.

Abstract

The direct measurements of nuclear reaction cross sections at astrophysical energies are usually difficult to be performed in terrestrial laboratories, mainly because of the Coulomb barrier. An alternative way of studying these processes is via the indirect methods among which the Trojan Horse (THM) represents a powerful tool for studying charged-particles induced reactions at astrophysically energies without the need of extrapolation procedures. The recent THM studies about the lithium and boron destroying reactions will be here shown and discussed.
