Abstract

The allowed Gamow-Teller (GT) strengths and associated weak interaction rates on fp-shell nuclides are the most familiar processes of spin-isospin (στ) type. These rates play a crucial role in several astrophysical processes, particularly in nuclear synthesis and supernova-explosions. As per simulation consequences, the electron capture cross-section on medium-heavy nuclei has a key impact on decreasing the ratio of electron-to-baryon of the stellar matter during the late stages of stars formation. Stellar model based on the theoretical approaches should be tested against the available measured data. In the current work we present calculated Gamow-Teller strength distributions by pn-QRPA model for selected fp-shell nuclei ( 42 Ti, 46 Cr, 50 Fe and 54 Ni) and compare our results with available measured data. The Gamow-Teller strength distributions are well fragmented over the energy range 0-12 MeV and have a good comparison with experimental data. We calculate the electron capture cross-section for selected nuclei at temperature 0.5 MeV, 1.0 MeV and 1.5 MeV that shows the temperature dependence of calculated electron capture cross-section for astrophysical applications.
