RADIATIVE p[sup.14]N CAPTURE TO THE FIRST EXCITED STATE OF THE [sup.15]O NUCLEUS

Within the framework of the modified potential cluster model, the possibility of describing the available experimental data on the astrophysical S-factor for the p[sup.14]N capture reaction to the first excited state of the [sup.15]O nucleus at 5.18 MeV for proton energies up to 1 MeV is considered. Under the assumption that this excited state is a D wave, we have successfully described the experimental data for the astrophysical S-factor. Keywords: nuclear astrophysics, light atomic nuclei, low and astrophysical energies, elastic scattering, p[sup.14]N system, potential description, radiative capture, total cross sections, thermonuclear reactions, potential cluster model, forbidden states, classification of orbital states according to Young tableaux.
