Nuclear reaction rate for photodisintegration and their inverse, charged particle and neutron capture reactions, are important input quantities for stellar nucleosynthesis. In order to evaluate reaction rates precisely, both nuclear experiment and model prediction are needed. Recently, real photon-beam is used as powerful tools for astrophysics. In this work, current status of the development of a new bremsstrahlung {gamma}-ray source with the electron linear accelerator at Hokkaido University will be presented.
