Proton, neutron and alpha-particle capture reactions are the main contributors towards the understanding of the p-process nucleosynthesis. Although the reactions involved in this process are mainly photodisintegrations, measuring the inverse reactions can be even more helpful than the measurement of the gamma -induced reactions themselves. Recently there have been major experimental...

The p-process is the most promising astrophysical scenario for the nucleosynthesis of about 35 proton-rich nuclei referred to as p nuclei. This process involves an extensive reaction network of about 2000 nuclei and more than 20000 reactions, especially photodisintegration reactions, under explosive physical conditions. The huge number of reaction rates are mainly adopted from...
