New Determination of the 12C(α, γ)16O Reaction Rate and Its Impact on the Black-hole Mass Gap

We present a precise measurement of the asymptotic normalization coefficient (ANC) for the ^16 O ground state (GS) through the ^12 C( ^11 B, ^7 Li) ^16 O transfer reaction using the Quadrupole‐3‐Dipole (Q3D) magnetic spectrograph. The present work sheds light on the existing discrepancy of more than...
