Astrophysical Rates for 12N(p,)13O Direct Capture Reaction

The proton capture on the unstable nuclei plays a very important role in nucleonsynthesis. The 12N(p,)13O reaction rates at the energies of astrophysical interest are estimated with the spectroscopic factor and asymptotic normalization coefficient methods. The present results show that the 12N(p,)13O reaction may play an important role in x-ray bursts.
