Energy Deconvolution of Cross Section Measurements with an Application to the 12C(alpha,gamma)16O Reaction


Abstract in English

A general framework for deconvoluting the effects of energy averaging on charged-particle reaction measurements is presented. There are many potentially correct approaches to the problem; the relative merits of some of are discussed. These deconvolution methods are applied to recent 12C(alpha,gamma)16O measurements.
