Abstract
A number of photon capture reactions at astrophysical relevant energies is accessible to measurements at high current electron accelerator in Yerevan Physics Institute. High intensity bremsstrahlung beam with end energies varied in the range of 3-20 MeV should be used as photon source. Superposition of several bremsstrahlung spectra can give valuable information about reaction yields with quasi-thermal photon energies. A number of photonuclear reactions at astrophysical temperatures T9 ~ 2-3 related to p – processes can be investigated. Calculation of astrophysical process rates is possible with reciprocal correlation on the base of measurements of reverse γ- reaction rates.
