Studying stars by going underground: the LUNA experiment at Gran Sasso Laboratory
Cross sections of astrophysically relevant reactions are essential ingredients for element nucleosynthesis, energy generation and neutrino fluxes in stellar environments. The low value of such cross sections in the stellar energy range prevents their measurement in a laboratory at the Earth’s surfa...
