摘要:We calculate the Coulomb dissociation of 9Li on Pb and U targets at 28.5 MeV/A beam energy
within a finite range distorted wave Born approximation formalism of the breakup reactions. Invoking
the principle of detailed balance, these cross sections are used to determine the excitation
function and subsequently the rate of the radiative capture reaction 8Li(n,g )9Li at astrophysical
energies. Our method is free from the uncertainties associated with the multipole strength distributions
of the 9Li nucleus. The rate of this reaction at a temperature of 109K is found to be about
2900 cm3 mole−1 s−1.
