The available data on nuclear fusion cross sections important to energy generation in the Sun and other hydrogen-burning stars solar neutrino production are summarized critically evaluated. Recommended values uncertainties provided for key sections, a recommended spectrum is given $^{8}\mathrm{B}$ neutrinos. Opportunities further increasing precision of rates also discussed, including new facilities, experimental techniques, improvements theory. This review, which summarizes conclusions...

In an experiment at the SISSI/LISE facility of GANIL, we used projectile fragmentation a ${}^{78}\mathrm{Kr}$ primary beam 73 MeV/nucleon to produce new isotopes astrophysical interest.

A new experimental approach is introduced to investigate the relaxation of nuclear deformation degrees freedom. Highly excited fissioning systems with compact shapes and low angular momenta are produced in peripheral relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Both fission fragments identified atomic number. Fission cross sections fission-fragment element distributions determined as a function element. From comparison these observables nuclear-reaction code value for transient time deduced.
