abstract = "Absolute cross sections for the 3He(α, γ)7Be reaction were determined for c.m. energies between 164 and 245 keV. The results are in good agreement with previous values obtained by Parker and Kavanagh, where the experiments overlap. The energy region was extended to lower energies and the accuracy of the measurement was improved.",

note = "Funding Information: Recently there has been a renewed interest in the proton-proton chain. Davis, Harmer and Hoffman 3) attempted a direct measurement of the solar neutrino flux, and Bahcall, Bahcall and Shaviv 4) made a theoretical estimate of the counting rate based on the most recent nuclear reaction and solar model data. The upper limit obtained by Davis et aL was found to be somewhat lower than expected theoretically, but it appears that at the present state there is no irreconcilable discrepancy with the prediction when the uncertainties in the various parameters are taken into account. However, in order to interpret future measurements of the neutrino flux, the reaction data pertaining to the proton-proton chain should be carefully re-examined for possible errors in the extrapolation procedure. It is realized that the present reaction plays an especially important role in the mechanism, since the measurement of Davis et aL t Now at Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton, Long Island, New York. *t Now at The Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Bombay, India. *tt Supported in part by the National Science Foundation \[GP-9114\] and the Office of Naval Research \[Nonr-220(47)\].",
