The astrophysical rates of the ^14O(,)^17F and ^17F(p,γ)^18Ne reactions affect the transition to the αp-process in x-ray bursts and ^18F production in novae, respectively. Both reactions have been studied in the laboratory with the intense radioactive ^17F beams delivered at HRIBF. Recently beam intensities greater than 10^7 ^17F ions/s have become available, making possible the first direct measurement of the ^17F (p,γ)^18Ne cross section [K. A. Chipps et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 152502 (2009)]. These high beam intensities also provide an opportunity to make the first precise determination of the resonance strength of the 1^- ^14O (,)^17F resonance near Ec.m.=1 MeV. Recent results and upcoming plans for measurements with ^17F beams at the HRIBF will be presented.
