Invoking the principle of detailed balance, these cross sections are used to determine the excitation function and subsequently the rate of the radiative capture reaction 8Li(n,g)9Li at astrophysical energies. Our method is free from the uncertainties associated with the multipole strength distributions of the 9Li nucleus. The rate of this reaction at a temperature of 10^9K is found to be about 2900 cm^3 mole^{-1} s^{-1}.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2008-09-12T10:14:18.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "24.50.+g", "25.40.Lw", "25.60.Tv", "24.10.-i" ], "keywords": [ "coulomb dissociation", "9li reaction", "finite range distorted wave born", "range distorted wave born approximation", "distorted wave born approximation formalism" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review C", "year": 2008, "month": "Sep", "volume": 78, "number": 3, "pages": "035804" }, "note": { "typesetting": "RevTeX", "pages": 13, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 783317, "adsabs": "2008PhRvC..78c5804B" } } }
