21Na

21Na is formed when 20Ne + p fuse. Its levels just above each threshold are the resonances that set those reactions' rates.

Channels and what has been measured

Every EXFOR reaction that forms 21Na: entrance pair (rows) and the quantities measured (columns), with the energies covered.

Level scheme

Adopted levels of 21Na from ENSDF, with the particle thresholds and the Gamow window of the selected channel drawn across them.

Level scheme
2.4241/2+2.7981/2-2.8299/2+Gamow window, T₉ = 0.08S(p) = 2.432 MeVE (MeV)
  • level in the window with a measured ωγ
  • level in the window with no ωγ in EXFOR
  • Jπ in parentheses or in italics is tentative.

Resonances in the window

Levels between the 20Ne(p,γ)21Na threshold (S = 2431.9 keV) and the top of the Gamow window at T9 = 0.08 (135 keV above it), with the resonance strengths ωγ EXFOR holds for them.

ENSDF lists no level in this window.

A strength is matched to a level when its resonance energy plus the threshold lies within max(3 keV, 3σ) of the level energy.
