Title: Measurement of Neutron-Capture Cross Sections of {sup 70,72}Ge Using the DANCE Facility

Journal Article · · Physical Review C, Nuclear Physics

Approximately half of all atomic nuclei heavier than iron are synthesized by the slow neutroncapture process. The weak component of this process is not well understood and the reaction rates of each isotope in the s-process path affect nucleosynthesis abundances downstream.
