Abstract
Inexplosive stellar hydrogen burning, the hot CNO cycles and the rp-process are mainly linked by the reaction sequence O-15(alpha,gamma) Ne-19(p,gamma)Na-20. Using intense Ne-19 radioactive beams, both the Ne-19(p,gamma) and the Ne-19(d,n) reaction have been studied. Upper and lower limits for the Ne-19(p,gamma) reaction rate have been deduced, allowing to conclude that the O-15(alpha,gamma) reaction is most likely the bottleneck reaction.
