Abstract
The nucleosynthesis of heavy proton-rich nuclei in a stellar photon bath
at temperatures of the astrophysical gamma-process was investigated
where the photon bath was simulated by the superposition of
bremsstrahlung spectra with different endpoint energies. The method was
applied to derive (gamma,n) cross sections and reaction rates for
several platinum isotopes. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights
