Scientific paper

Thermonuclear explosions induced by reactions involving hydrogen are expected to occur in various astrophysical sites. Most of the nuclear reactions involve short-lived target nuclei. Recently, a few of these reactions were investigated using radioactive ion beam facilities. However, in most cases we still rely on empirical estimates for the stellar rates. We have performed systematic nuclear studies in order to determine the reliability of currently employed theoretical techniques used for the calculation of reaction rates. Several updated stellar reaction rates will be presented and the implications for stellar nucleosynthesis and future experiments at radioactive ion beam facilities are discussed.
