Abstract
We discuss new results concerning the investigation of the 19F(p,α0)16O and 10B(p,α0)7Be reactions at low energies. Both reactions are important for the nuclear spectroscopy of the formed compound nucleus, i.e. 20Ne and 11C respectively, and play a role in nuclear astrophysics. For the 10B(p,α0)7Be case, a comprehensive analysis of our reaction data and other scattering data points out the possible presence of an unreported state in 11C at Ex ≈ 9.36 MeV. For the 19F(p,α0)16O case, the study of the low energy angular distributions testifies the role played by low energy resonances in the S-factor, leading to an enhanced reaction rate at stellar energies.
