New energy for the 133-keV resonance in the 23Na(p,γ) 24Mg reaction and its impact on nucleosynthesis in globular clusters
Abstract
Globular cluster stars exhibit star-to-star anticorrelations between oxygen and sodium in their atmospheres. An improved description of the sodium-destroying 23Na +p reaction rates is essential to understanding these observations. We present an energy analysis of 24Mg states based on a new measurement of the 23Na(3He, d) 24Mg reaction. A key resonance in 23Na(p, γ) 24Mg is found to be at $$E$$ $$^{c.m.}_{r}$$ = 133(3) keV, 5 keV lower than previously adopted. This finding has a dramatic effect on the 23Na(p, γ) 24Mg reaction rate, increasing it by a factor of 2 for the recommended rate. Furthermore, the nucleosynthesis impact of this change is investigated.
