这篇综述重点关注天体物理学中的核反应，更具体地说，关注通过强相互作用进行的轻离子（核子和粒子）反应。它的目的是提出核天体物理学研究所必需的基本定义，指出恒星和地球实验室中发生的核反应之间的差异，并说明这些反应的理论和实验研究中面临的一些挑战。讨论围绕天体物理学的相关量展开，即天体物理反应速率。探讨了反应速率对各种核性质预测的不确定性的敏感性，并为实验人员提供了一些指导。
This review focuses on nuclear reactions in astrophysics and, more specifically, on reac- tions with light ions (nucleons andparticles) proceeding via the strong interaction. It is intended to present the basic definitions essential for studies in nuclear astrophysics, to point out the differences between nuclear reactions taking place in stars and in a terrestrial laboratory, and to illustrate some of the challenges to be faced in theoretical and experimental studies of those reactions. The discussion revolves around the relevant quantities for astrophysics, which are the astrophysical reaction rates. The sensitivity of the reaction rates to the uncertainties in the prediction of various nuclear properties is explored and some guidelines for experimentalists are also provided.
