The cross sections of the neutron capture reaction on light nuclei, protons,12C and16O, were measured at astrophysically relevant energies between 10 and 300 keV. They are not only important for estimating yields of elements in the primordial nucleosynthesis, stellar nucleosynthesis of s-, r-, and p-processes, but also to study the role of meson exchange currents, the nuclear structure and the reaction mechanism. In the measurement, we used a prompt γ-ray detection method, combined with a pulsed neutron beam, and a recently developed Monte-Carlo code, TIME-MULTI, to correct for neutron multiple-scattering effects in a sample.
