TL;DR

This paper refines the normalization coefficients for the $^3He+alpha o ^7Be$ reaction using a potential approach, improving extrapolation of astrophysical S-factors to solar energies and providing insights into mirror nuclei spectroscopic factors.

Contribution

It introduces a modified two-body potential method to estimate asymptotic normalization constants for the $^3He+ ext{alpha} o ^7Be$ reaction, enhancing the accuracy of low-energy S-factor extrapolation.

Findings

New estimates of asymptotic normalization constants for $^7Be$ states.

Refined astrophysical S-factors at energies up to 90 keV.

Insights into $ ext{^7Li}$ and $ ext{^7Be}$ mirror nuclei spectroscopic factors.

Abstract

A new analysis of the modern precise measured astrophysical $S$ factors for the direct capture $^3He(\alpha,\gamma)^7{\rm {Be}}$ reaction [B.S. Nara Singh {\it et al.}, Phys.Rev.Lett. {\bf 93}, 262503 (2004); D. Bemmerer {\it et al.}, Phys.Rev.Lett. {\bf 97}, 122502 (2006); F.Confortola {\it et al.}, Phys.Rev.C {\bf 75}, 065803 (2007), T.A.D.Brown {\it et al.}, Phys.Rev. C {\bf 76}, 055801 (2007) and A Di Leva, {\it et al.},Phys.Rev.Lett. {\bf 102}, 232502 (2009)] populating to the ground and first excited states of $^7{\rm Be}$ is carried out based on the modified two - body potential approach. New estimates are obtained for the $^{\glqq}$indirectly determined\grqq\, values of the asymptotic normalization constants (the nuclear vertex constants) for $^3{\rm {He}}+\alpha\to{\rm {^7Be}}$(g.s.) and $^3{\rm {He}}+\alpha\to{\rm {^7Be}}$(0.429 MeV) as well as the astrophysical $S$ factors $S_{34}(E)$ at E$\le$ 90 keV, including $E$=0. The values of asymptotic normalization constants have been used for getting information about the $\alpha$-particle spectroscopic factors for the mirror (${\rm{^7Li}}{\rm {^7Be}}$)-pair.
