Abstract

We apply the microscopic three-cluster model, developed by the authors recently, to study the effects of cluster polarization on the capture reactions 3He(α, γ)7Be, 3H(α, γ)7Li, 6Li(p, γ)7Be, and 6Li(n, γ)7Li. These reactions are of great importance for astrophysical applications. Thus, the main attention is paid to the cross sections (or the astrophysical S factor) of the reactions in the low-energy region. Correlations between the astrophysical S factor of the reactions at zero energy and different quantities associated with the ground state of a compound nucleus are studied in detail.
