Nuclear level density and the determination of thermonuclear rates for astrophysics
The prediction of cross sections for nuclei far off stability is crucial in the field of nuclear astrophysics. In recent calculations the nuclear level density---as an important ingredient to the statistical model (Hauser-Feshbach)---has shown the highest uncertainties. We present a global parametrization of nuclear level densities within the back-shifted Fermi-gas …
