Modern many-body models, like various versions of the interacting shell model, have allowed to decisively improve the description of weak-interaction processes like electron captures and neutrino-induced reactions on nuclei under supernova conditions. The talk will describe these advances, compare the model predictions with relevant experimental data and show their impact on the supernova...

Roles of nuclear weak processes in nucleosynthesis in stars and star evoultions are discussed based on recent studies on nuclear structure of both stable and unstable nuclei.
New neutrino-nucleus reaction cross sections are evaluated by using new shell-model Hamiltonians, which have proper tensor interactions and explain well the shell evolutions (change of magic numbers) toward...

An activation experiment has been performed at the IFIN-HH Tandem
accelerator (Bucharest) for obtaining information about the behaviour of
fusion cross section at below barrier energies. The acquisition system was based on TNT digitizers and should face heavy loads at the beginning of the measurements. Special algorithms have been developed to account for the dead time and they will be...

Recently the scientific society marked several anniversaries, connected with discoveries which have played significant role in the development of astrophysical investigations. The year 2009 was chosen by the United Nations and UNESCO to be the year of astronomy. This was inspired by the 400th anniversary of Galileo Galilei’s discovery of the telescope, giving the start of regular studies in...
