Book excerpt: This report summarizes the accomplishments of the project S̀̀tudies of nuclear reactions at very low energies̀̀. This project was undertaken in 1987 and completed in 1993. All but one of the major objectives of this study have been accomplished. Specifically the authors have completed their investigation of the (p,?) on light nuclei, a study of the Oppenheimer-Phillips effect, a measurements of the astrophysically interesting reaction D(?,?)6Li at low energies and an extension of the reaction D(d,?)4He to lower energies than previously observed. Preliminary investigation of te reaction 7Li(3He, p)9Be was begun and is continuing under a separate DOE grant. In addition to these tasks, they have completed some very interesting projects which were not included in the original proposal. These include a study of the (d,?) reactions on 6Li, 7Li and 1°B and an investigation of the possibility of observing terrestrial antineutrinos from the beta decay chains of U and Th as a diagnostic of terrestrial heat flow.
