Direct measurement of the ¹⁶O(α, γ)²⁰Ne reaction at E_c.m.=2.43 MeV and 1.69 MeV

NUCLEAR REACTIONS ¹⁶O(α, γ)²⁰Ne, E(cm)=1.69, 2.43 MeV; measured ²⁰Ne spectra, Eγ, Iγ, (²⁰Ne)γ-coin, time of flight using DRAGON recoil separator at TRIUMF facility. ²⁰Ne; deduced levels J, π, S factor, branching ratios, resonance strengths, radiative widths, B(E1), B(M1), B(E2), B(E3). R-matrix analysis. Comparison with previous studies. Relevance to helium burning sequence.
