Abstract

The (8)B(alpha,p)(11)C reaction is part of the network that can bypass the triple a process leading to the production of (12)C. We have measured the astrophysical reaction rate for this reaction by studying the inverse (11)C(p,alpha)(8)B process. The radioactive (11)C beam was produced via the p((11)B,(11)C)n reaction using the in-flight facility at the ATLAS accelerator. The astrophysical reaction rate obtained from the excitation function measured in the energy range E(x)=8.8-10 MeV was found to be a factor of 10-50 higher than previous estimates.
