Description of the 17F(p,gamma)18Ne radiative capture reaction in the continuum shell model
Abstract
The shell model embedded in the continuum is applied to calculate the astrophysical S-factor and the reaction rate for the radiative proton capture reaction 17F(p,gamma)18Ne. The dominant contribution to the cross-section at very low energies is due to M1 transitions Jipi = 2+ --> Jfpi = 21+ whose magnitude is controlled by a weakly bound 22+ state at the excitation energy Ex = 3.62 MeV.
