Reactions such as 18Ne(/α, p)21Na of importance to Nuclear Astrophysics may be studied directly through the use of a radioactive beam and a gaseous helium target. A system to study such reactions has been developed and tested using the 13N beam available at the Radioactive Ion Beam facility (RIB) at Louvain-la-Neuve. This (α,p) reaction was chosen as previous studies of the inverse reaction 16O(p, α)13N allowed the resonance strength of a strong resonance at 8.07MeV (Tilley et al., Nucl. Phys. A 564 /(1993) 139) in the compound nucleus 17F to be calculated and compared with that obtained through experiment. These resonance strengths showed good agreement and so validated the technique for further work.
