Abstract

Asymptotic Normalization Coefficients method is one of the indirect methods used in nuclear astrophysics. The method allows to deduce a direct part of a radiative capture cross section from the measurement of a two body reaction under specific conditions. The experimental works started in collaboration of NPI CAS, TAMU and INFN LNS from 90-ties and continue till the present. The introduction to this method is presented and experimental experiences from NPI CAS and the collaboration are shared.
