| Research Abstract |
92Mo is the most neutron-deficient nuclide in molybdenum isotopes, and is supposed to be produced via the p-process of the astrophysical nucleosynthesis. It has been a long-standing problem in nuclear astrophysics that the observed abundance of 92Mo is smaller by a factor of a few ten than the predicted value of the p-process theory. One of the possible reason for this discrepancy is the inaccuracy of the 92Mo(gamma,p)91Nb reaction cross section which has not been measured experimentally. We developed a new method for measurement of the 92Mo(gamma,p)91Nb cross section by using an inorganic scintillator including molybdenum as an active target. A high-sensitivity photo-activation analysis was also developed, and was successfully used for measurement of the 92Mo(gamma,p)91Nb reaction cross section using a quasi-monoenergetic laser Compton-scattered gamma-ray beam provided at the NewSUBARU synchrotron radiation facility of the University of Hyogo.
