Published “experimental” charged particle reaction rate evaluations:
CONCLUSION: • About 66 reactions from CF88 have not been evaluated since!• Many of these are still used in our rate libraries (e.g., REACLIB)

Region 4: Matching of experimental and Hauser-Feshbach rates

The future:
• Use recommended standard resonance strengths and cross sections• Refine indirect methods (C2S, ANC’s)• Apply a sound mathematical model to derive rate errors• Use primary data to calculate reaction rates
• A unified reaction rate evaluation effort would be important for our field• A modular reaction rate library generator like NETGEN is useful
