Scientific paper

14C(n,γ)15C is being used as a test case in the development of an indirect method to determine neutron capture cross sections on neutron-rich unstable nuclei at astrophysical energies. Our approach makes use of two reactions: one peripheral used to find the asymptotic normalization coefficient (ANC) and a second non-peripheral reaction to determine the spectroscopic factor. The ANC for 15C has been determined using a HI neutron transfer reaction with a 12 MeV/nucleon 14C beam on a 13C target. The spectroscopic factor will be determined using 14C(d,p) in forward kinematics with an incident deuteron energy of 60 MeV. Both experiments were performed using the MDM high-resolution spectrometer at Texas A&M University.
