Abstract
The contribution of the F-18(p,gamma) reaction to the production of Ne -19 which is the crucial isotope for the breakout from the hot CNO cyc le into the rp process, has been investigated in experiments with F-18 beams. Measurements of the cross sections for the F-18(p,alpha)O-15 a nd the F-18(p,gamma)Ne-19 reactions indicate that the contribution fro m the (p,gamma) route to the formation of Ne-19 is small.
