Scientific paper

The Coulomb breakup method has been applied to investigations of several radiative capture processes of astrophysical interest. The method has an advantage of high experimental efficiency when the incident energy is above several tens MeV/nucleon. This makes many experiments possible even with radioactive nuclear beams with rather weak intensities. Two examples of studies for resonance and continuum excitations are discussed: the reactions 13N(p,γ)14O and 7Be(p,γ)8B. They are the key reactions in the hot CNO cycle in massive stars and the one related to the solar neutrino problem, respectively. Preliminary results of two new experiments on the 8B(p,γ)9C and 11C(p,γ)12N reactions are also reported.
