Abstract
The indirect investigation of low-energy charged-particle reactions relevant for nuclear astrophysics is considered, employing statistical tensor analysis. Data from the quasi-free contribution to the 6Li(6Li, 2α)4He reaction at projectile energies above the Coulomb barrier are analyzed in order to extract the excitation function of the 6Li(d, α)4He reaction at very low relative energy. The results are compared with an astrophysical factor extracted from the free-reaction cross section data. The limits of the method are discussed.
