Re analysis of Temperature Dependent Neutron Capture Rates and Stellar \b{eta} decay Rates of 95 98Mo

Abstract

The neutron capture rates and temperature dependent stellar beta decay rates of Mo isotopes are investigated within the framework of the statistical code (Talys v1.96) and proton neutron quasi particle random phase approximation (pnQRPA) models. The Maxwellian average cross section (MACS) and neutron capture rates for 95 98Mo(n,{\gamma}) 96 99Mo radiative capture processes are analyzed within the framework of statistical code Talys v1.96 based on the phenomenological nuclear level density (NLD) parameters and gamma strength functions (GSFs). The current model based computed data for MACS provide a good comparison with the existing measured data. The temperature dependent stellar \b{eta} decay rates of 95 98Mo are investigated at different densities within the framework of the pn-QRPA model. For the considered temperature range, the neutron capture rates were found to be higher, by orders of magnitude, than the stellar \b{eta} rates.
