【 摘 要 】

LUNA, the Laboratory for Underground Nuclear Astrophysics, is an accelerator facility for measurements of nuclear cross sections of astrophysical interest. The greatly reduced cosmic ray background at LUNA's underground location in the Gran Sasso National Laboratory (LNGS) allows direct measurements of weak reactions at low energies. One of the reactions currently under study at LUNA is23Na(p,γ)24Mg, which links the NeNa and MgAl cycles in stellar burning. The LUNA facility is presented, with a focus on the current experimental efforts to study the reaction23Na(p,γ)24Mg.
