New experimental study of the 3He(α,γ)7Be reaction around the Ecm = 3 MeV resonance

Abstract

The total cross section of the 3He(α,γ)7Be reaction was measured by the activation technique in the energy range of Ecm = 2.6 - 3.1 MeV, covering the first known resonance in the reaction. Consistent results were obtained with the only one available literature dataset in this energy range.
