In RafaelSdeSouza/nuclear: Functions to estimate S-factor for nuclear reactions

Nuclear

The Nuclear R package provides a set of functions to simulate and estimate non-resonant astrophysical S-factors and thermonuclear reaction rates, based on measured nuclear cross sections. The following reactions are currently included: d(p,γ)3He, d(d,n)3He, d(d,p)3H, 3H(d,n)4He, 3He(3He,2p)4He, 3He(α,γ)7Be, 3He(d,p)4He, 7Be(n,p)7Li.
