Thermonuclear reaction rate of 30Si($p, γ$) 31P
Abstract
Silicon synthesis in high-temperature hydrogen burning environments presents one possible avenue for the study of abundance anomalies in globular clusters. This was suggested in a prior study, which found that the large uncertainties associated with the reaction rate preclude a firm understanding of the stellar conditions that give rise to the Mg-K anticorrelation observed in the globular cluster NGC 2419. In an effort to improve the reaction rate, we present new strength measurements of the keV and keV resonances in . For the former, which was previously unobserved, we obtain a resonance strength of ) eV. For the latter, we obtain a value of eV, which has a smaller uncertainty compared to previously measured strengths. Based on these results, the thermonuclear reaction rate has been re-evaluated. The impact of the new measurements is to lower the reaction rate by a factor of at temperatures important to the study of NGC 2419. The rate uncertainty at these temperatures has also been reduced significantly.

The rate uncertainty at these temperatures has also been reduced significantly.},
