• EURISOL 15O, 14O beam ?

• Different consequences?

p + p ↔ 2He → d + e+ +

p + 4He ↔ 5Li → γ + e+ + ν +4He + n

15O intensity = 1010 pps

E = 0.8 A MeV

N reactions = 8 / day.Continuum Shell Model

• Astro?

• Unbound state isomer !

16F radioactive??

•Non exponential decay!

•More surprises to come …

Future

Page 15: Unbound states near the proton emission threshold. The case of 16 F. I. Ştefan (1), F. de Oliveira Santos (2) (1) IPN Orsay (2) GANIL.

Application for other unbound nuclei

- 15F (very interesting case)

- 5Li

- 4Li

- 19Na

…….

Outlook

Proposition of a new reaction pathway - 15O(p,γ)(β+)16O

- Consequences in different astrophysical scenarios

- Sequential decay ?

- Shape of the resonance ?

- γ decay between two unbound states ? σ(p,γ)~ 1 μb

- Experimental Confirmation
