The 9Be(p, γ)10B cross section at low energies Original Research Article

Data for the 9Be(p, γ)10B reaction with proton energies up to 1800 keV are fitted using R-matrix formulae that include channel contributions where appropriate. The data include values of the astrophysical S factor, the branching ratios for γ-transitions to the four lowest states of 10B, angular distributions and analysing powers. Use is made of experimental values of asymptotic normalization constants obtained from 9Be(10B, 9Be) 10B. A good fit is obtained with two 1− levels, two 2− levels, one 0+ level and one 2+ level.
