Classical novae are unique in nuclear astrophysics because most of the involved reaction rates are constrained by experiments. This allows one to judge which measurements are still necessary to improve the nuclear physics input to models. In this context, the 30P(p,γ)31S reaction rate needs to be better determined over nova temperatures. Direct measurements of this reaction are not possible yet, and so indirect techniques must be used. There has been significant recent activity on this issue, but difficulties have been encountered in nuclear spectroscopy studies (e.g., 31P(3He,t)31S) due to experimental energy resolution. For this and other reactions, we discuss recent measurements using the superior resolution of the Munich Q3D spectrograph (ΔE/E≈2 x 10−4) that can improve determinations of thermonuclear rates.
