Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Abstract The study of the 3H(1H, γ)4He reaction is of relevance for both nuclear physics and nuclear astrophysics. In nuclear astrophysics, more accurate data should be obtained on the rate of primordial nucleosynthesis reactions that lead to the production of 4He. In nuclear physics, there are theoretical models in which the behavior of the cross section and the S-factor of this reaction in the energy range of the order of tens of keV are in poor agreement with experiment. Thereby, more accurate experimental study of S-factor behavior should be performed in the astrophysical energy range. The experimentally obtained values of the yields for various energies of 1H+ ions were used to describe the behavior of the 3H(1H, γ)4He reaction S-factor depending on the energy. As a result, the accuracy of determination of the S-factor of the 3H(1H, γ)4He reaction has been improved several times.
