Energies of all critical resonances in the Cu-57(p,gamma)Zn-58 reaction are deduced by populating states in Zn-58 with a (d, n) reaction in inverse kinematics at 75 MeV/u, and detecting.-ray-recoil coincidences with the state-of-the-art gamma-ray tracking array GRETINA and the S800 spectrograph at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory. The results reduce the uncertainty in the Cu-57(p,gamma) reaction rate by several orders of magnitude. The effective lifetime of Ni-56, an important waiting point in the rp process in x-ray bursts, can now be determined entirely from experimentally constrained reaction rates.", optnote="WOS:000344180500004", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=1991), last updated on Wed, 15 Apr 2015 10:52:18 +0000", issn="0031-9007", doi="10.1103/PhysRevLett.113.032502", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.113.032502", language="English" }
