Description
This presentation summarizes recent research activities of the Nuclear Astrophysics Group at CENS, with particular emphasis on direct reaction studies relevant to explosive nucleosynthesis and the origin of the elements. Topics include selected direct and indirect studies of astrophysically important reactions, associated detector developments, and international collaborative experiments at major rare-isotope facilities. Future opportunities for nuclear astrophysics research at RAON, including direct reaction measurements with rare-isotope beams, will also be discussed.
