Neutron-induced reaction cross sections of short-lived nuclei are imperative to understand the origin heavy elements in stellar nucleosynthesis and for societal applications, but their measurement is extremely complicated due radioactivity targets involved. One way overcoming this issue combine surrogate reactions with unique possibilities offered by heavy-ion storage rings.
