The Trojan Horse Method (THM) represents an indirect path to determine the bare nucleus
astrophysical S-factor for reactions among charged particles at astrophysical energies. This …

Light elements were produced in the first few minutes of the Universe through a sequence of
nuclear reactions known as Big Bang nucleosynthesis (BBN),. Among the light elements …

The synthesis of nuclei in diverse cosmic scenarios is reviewed, with a summary of the basic
concepts involved before a discussion of the current status in each case is made. We review …

The accurate evaluation of the nuclear reaction rates and corresponding uncertainties is an
essential requisite for a precise determination of light nuclide primordial abundances. The …

Recent measurements of the D (p, γ) 3He nuclear reaction cross-section and of the neutron
lifetime, along with the reevaluation of the cosmological baryon abundance from cosmic …

Carbon burning powers scenarios that influence the fate of stars, such as the late
evolutionary stages of massive stars (exceeding eight solar masses) and superbursts from …

This paper presents the main features of a new and updated version of the program
PArthENoPE, which the community has been using for many years for computing the …

Primordial or big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) is one of the three historically strong
evidences for the big bang model. Standard BBN is now a parameter-free theory, since the …

We revisit the state of the light element abundances from big bang nucleosynthesis in early
2024 with particular focus on the derived baryon abundance. We find that the largest …

The Trojan Horse Method represents an indirect approach to investigate reactions of
astrophysical relevance at the energies of interest, free of Coulomb suppression and …
