Abstract
13N(p, γ)14O is one of the key reaction in hot CNO cycle, which is important for studying the energy source of evolution of stars. The angular distribution of 13N(d, n)14O at Ecm=8.9 MeV was measured using 13N beam produced by secondary beam facility at HI-13 tandem accelerator. The ANC of 14O was then extracted to be (29.4±5.3) fm-1. In addition, we derived the asymptotic normalization coefficient (ANC) of 14O by analyzing the 13C(d, p)14C angular distribution based on charge symmetry of mirror nuclei, which agrees with the experimental result. The astrophysical S factor and reaction rate of 13N(p, γ)14O were then calculated using R-matrix theory and were inputted into astrophysical reaction network. It shows the energy generated by CNO cycle in novae using the present data is 5% more than that using the previous ones, which could affect the evolution of novae.
