The {sup 14}N({sup 7}Be,{sup 8}B){sup 13}C reaction was studied using an 85 MeV {sup 7}Be radioactive beam. The asymptotic normalization coefficients for the virtual transitions {sup 7}Be+p{leftrightarrow}{sup 8}B were determined from the measured cross section. These coefficients specify the amplitude of the tail of the {sup 8}B overlap function in the {sup 7}Be+p channel, and were used to calculate the astrophysical {ital S} factor for the direct capture reaction {sup 7}Be(p,{gamma}){sup 8}B at solar energies S{sub 17}(0). We find that S{sub 17}(0)=16.6{plus_minus}1.9 eV&hthinsp;b. {copyright} {ital 1999} {ital The American Physical Society}
