The astrophysical p-process is responsible for the origin of the proton rich nuclei,which are heavier than iron. A huge network involving thousands of reaction rates is necessary to calculate the final p-abundances. But not all rates included in the network have a strong influence on the p-nuclei abundances. The p-process was investigated using a full nuclear reaction network for a type II supernovae explosion when the shock front passes through the O/Ne layer. Calculations were done with a multi-layer model adopting the seed of a pre-explosion evolution of a 25 mass star. In extensive simulations we investigated the impact of single reaction rates on the final p-abundances. The results are important for the strategy of future experiments in this field.

The reaction pp -> K+ + (Lambda p) was measured at Tp=1.953 GeV and Theta = 0 deg with a high missing mass resolution in order to study the Lambda p final state interaction. The large final state enhancement near the Lambda p threshold can be describ
ed using the standard Jost-function approach. The singlet and triplet scattering lengths and effective ranges are deduced by fitting simultaneously the Lambda p invariant mass spectrum and the total cross section data of the free Lambda p scattering.
The $ u p$ process appears in proton-rich, hot matter which is expanding in a neutrino wind and may be realised in explosive environments such as core-collapse supernovae or in outflows from accretion disks. The impact of uncertainties in nuclear rea
ction cross sections on the finally produced abundances has been studied by applying Monte Carlo variation of all astrophysical reaction rates in a large reaction network. As the detailed astrophysical conditions of the $ u p$ process still are unknown, a parameter study was performed, with 23 trajectories covering a large range of entropies and $Y_mathrm{e}$. The resulting abundance uncertainties are given for each trajectory. The $ u p$ process has been speculated to contribute to the light $p$ nuclides but it was not possible so far to reproduce the solar isotope ratios. It is found that it is possible to reproduce the solar $^{92}$Mo/$^{94}$Mo abundance ratio within nuclear uncertainties, even within a single trajectory. The solar values of the abundances in the Kr-Sr region relative to the Mo region, however, cannot be achieved within a single trajectory. They may still be obtained from a weighted superposition of different trajectories, though, depending on the actual conditions in the production site. For a stronger constraint of the required conditions, it would be necessary to reduce the uncertainties in the 3$alpha$ and $^{56}$Ni(n,p)$^{56}$Co rates at temperatures $T>3$ GK.
We examine the influence of the environment on the chemical abundances of late-type galaxies with masses of 10^9.1 M_sun - 10^11 M_sun using data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey(SDSS). We find that the environmental influence on galactic chemical a
bundances is strongest for galaxies with masses of 10^9.1 M_sun to 10^9.6 Msun. The galaxies in the densest environments may exceed the average oxygen abundances by about 0.05 dex (the median value of the overabundances for 101 galaxies in the densest environments) and show higher abundances in nitrogen by about 0.1. The abundance excess decreases with increasing galaxy mass and with decreasing environmental density. Since only a small fraction of late-type galaxies is located in high-density environments these galaxies do not have a significant influence on the general X/H - M relation. The metallicity - mass relations for isolated galaxies and for galaxies with neighbors are very similar. The mean shift of non-isolated galaxies around the metallicity - mass relation traced by the isolated galaxies is less than 0.01 dex for oxygen and less than 0.02 dex for nitrogen. The scatter in the galactic chemical abundances is large for any number of neighbor galaxies (at any environmental density), i.e., galaxies with both enhanced and reduced abundances can be found at any environmental density. This suggests that environmental effects do not play a key role in evolution of late-type galaxies as was also concluded in some of the previous studies.
A model for the p d --> p d eta reaction published earlier, including the final state interaction (FSI) of all particles, is revisited to investigate the low energy data on this reaction. The three body problem of p-d-eta scattering in the final stat
e is approximated in terms of pairwise interactions between the three particles in the final state. Apart from a comparison with some preliminary data, two new findings relevant to the near threshold data analysis are reported. The first one points toward the limitations of an FSI factor used conventionally to extract the eta-deuteron scattering length and infer subsequently on the existence of eta-mesic states. The second result emphasizes the role of the $p-d$ FSI and the strong Coulomb repulsion near threshold. Finally, a comparison of the above model calculation with low energy data, excludes very large eta-nucleon scattering lengths.
We have used a sample of 15749 galaxies taken from the Las Campanas Redshift Survey to investigate the effects of environment on the rate of star formation (SFR) in galaxies. The size and homogeneity of this data set allows us to sample, for the firs
t time, the entire range of galactic environment, from the voids to the clusters, in a uniform manner, thus, we could decouple the local galaxy density from the membership in associations. This decoupling is very crucial for constraining the physical processes responsible for the environmental dependencies of SFR. On the other hand, the use of an automatically-measured concentration index (C), rather than Hubble type, allows us to cleanly separate the morphological component from the SFR vs. environment relationship. We find that cluster galaxies exhibit lower SFR for the same C than field galaxies, while a further division of clusters by `richness reveals a new possible excitation of `starbursts in poor clusters. Meanwhile, a more general environmental investigation reveals that the SFR of a given C shows a continuous correlation with the local density. Interestingly, this trend is also observed both inside and outside of clusters, implying that physical processes responsible for this correlation might not be intrinsic to the cluster environment. On the other hand, galaxies with differing levels of SFR appear to respond differently to the local density. Low levels of SFR are more sensitive to environment inside than outside of clusters. In contrast, high levels of SFR, identified as ``starbursts, are as sensitive to local density in the field as in clusters. We conclude that at least two separate processes are responsible for the environmental sensitivity of the SFR.
