The $^{24}$Mg($alpha,gamma$)$^{28}$Si reaction influences the production of magnesium and silicon isotopes during carbon burning and is one of eight reaction rates found to significantly impact the shape of calculated X-ray burst light curves. The reaction rate is based on measured resonance strengths and known properties of levels in $^{28}$Si. The $^{24}$Mg($alpha,gamma$)$^{28}$Si reaction rate has been re-evaluated including recent additional indirect data. The reaction rate is substantially unchanged from previously calculated rates, especially at astrophysically important temperatures. Increases in the reaction rate could occur at lower temperatures due to as-yet unmeasured resonances but these increases have little astrophysical impact. The $^{24}$Mg($alpha,gamma$)$^{28}$Si reaction rate at temperatures relevant to carbon burning and Type I X-ray bursts is well constrained by the available experimental data. This removes one reaction from the list of eight previously found to be important for X-ray burst light curve model-observation comparisons.
The competing $^{22}$Ne($alpha,gamma$)$^{26}$Mg and $^{22}$Ne($alpha,n$)$^{25}$Mg reactions control the production of neutrons for the weak $s$-process in massive and AGB stars. In both systems, the ratio between the corresponding reaction rates stro
The observation of $^{26}$Al gives us the proof of active nucleosynthesis in the Milky Way. However the identification of the main producers of $^{26}$Al is still a matter of debate. Many sites have been proposed, but our poor knowledge of the nuclea
The $^{22}$Ne($alpha$,$gamma$)$^{26}$Mg and $^{22}$Ne($alpha$,n)$^{25}$Mg reactions play an important role in astrophysics because they have significant influence on the neutron flux during the weak branch of the s-process. We constrain the astrophys
The possible occurence of highly deformed configurations is investigated in the $^{40}$Ca and $^{56}$Ni di-nuclear systems as formed in the $^{28}$Si+$^{12}$C,$^{28}$Si reactions by using the properties of emitted light charged particles. Inclusive a
The rate of the $^{25}$Al($p$,$gamma$)$^{26}$Si reaction is one of the few key remaining nuclear uncertainties required for predicting the production of the cosmic $gamma$-ray emitter $^{26}$Al in explosive burning in novae. This reaction rate is dom
