Astrophysics is a rapidly growing field, driven by observations from ground and spacebased telescopes, which cover all wavelengths, from radio waves to ultra-high energy gamma rays. Nuclear physics experiments provide critical input parameters, which are important for the interpretation of the obser
Nuclear reaction cross sections are usually very small in typical astrophysical environments. It has been one of the major challenges of experimental nuclear astrophysics to assess the magnitude of these cross sections in the laboratory. For a successful experiment high luminosity beams are needed.
